Marcus Rashford became the first player since Dennis Viollet in 1959 to score in nine consecutive home matches for Manchester United after scoring the winner in the Reds' 2-1 derby day triumph over Manchester City at Old Trafford on Saturday.
After being at the centre of the controversy that surrounded Bruno Fernandes' equaliser four minutes earlier, Rashford turned the game on its head when he connected with Alejandro Garnacho's low cross and stabbed the ball home from close range with just eight minutes of normal time left on the clock. It marked his 16th and most important goal of the campaign so far.
The academy graduate has now scored eight goals in seven matches since the domestic campaign resumed following the World Cup. He has also scored eight goals in the Premier League this term, half of which have come in his last four games.
