Premier League 2024/25: Marcus Rashford continues his good start under Ruben Amorim

New Delhi: It is truly amazing how a manager can influence a player and with regard to that statement, let’s talk about Marcus Rashford’s current form, playing under the new Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim. The forward has had a difficult few seasons with Manchester United, as he has faced tremendous amount of criticism for not producing the performances that everyone expects of him.

The previous season saw him score seven goals in 33 Premier League appearances, which was a drastic decline after a staggering 2022/23 season where he scored 17 times in the league. However, the English forward seems to be finding his form back under the guidance of new manager Ruben Amorim. It has been an excellent start for him, as he scored the first goal of “Amorim era”, against Ipswich Town, that saw United drawing the match 1-1. Not the best start for Amorim at Old Trafford, but it was a massive confidence boost for Rashford, and it is clearly evident in tonight’s live match, where United are playing Everton at home.

It has been a tremendous start for Manchester United, as they lead 3-0 against the Toffees at Old Trafford and it’s Marcus Rashford yet again who has already scored twice to put his side on the driver’s seat. The home side took the lead in the 34th minute as Bruno Fernandes’ corner was floated straight out to an unmarked Rashford at the edge of the box. His half-volley into the bottom corner beat Jordan Pickford to find the back of the net after taking a significant deflection off Jarrod Branthwaite. However, the goal was given to Rashford who managed to give United a crucial lead.

After Zirkzee scored the second goal which was also assisted by Bruno Fernandes, Rashford stepped up yet again to score his brace with a sharp finish as he drilled it past a stranded Pickford to make it 3-0 for United. What a start it has been for the Englishman as he looks to carry this form until the very end of the season.

 It has been a tremendous start for Marcus Rashford under the new coach, Ruben Amorim, as he scores a brace to give Manchester United a commanding 3-0 lead against Everton.  Football Sports News: Latest Cricket News, Cricket Live Score, Sports Breaking News from Sports Today
