Marcus Rashford was hailed as “unstoppable” after helping Manchester United to the brink of the Carabao Cup final.
Erik ten Hag’s United will take a 3-0 lead back to Old Trafford for the second leg of their semi-final next Wednesday. In-form Rashford ran from inside the visitors’ half at the City Ground to open the scoring for his 10th goal in 10 games since the World Cup and his 18th in total this term.
New-boy Wout Weghorst then doubled United’s lead just before the break with his first goal for the club in front of Sir Alex Ferguson in the stands. United skipper Bruno Fernandes added a late third as the visitors seemingly clinched an unassailable lead for the right to play Newcastle or Southampton at Wembley next month.
