Marcus Rashford has hit back at claims Manchester United waved the white flag during their 7-0 loss to Liverpool on Sunday.
The England forward attempted to explain the reason for the humiliating scoreline that left Erik Ten Hag's side nine points behind second-placed Manchester City. Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah - who became Liverpool's all-time leading Premier League scorer - ended the day with two goals apiece, with substitute Roberto Firmino completing a win that will live long in the memory of both clubs.
Sunday's 7-0 Anfield annihilation equalled United's record competitive defeat against Blackburn in 1926, Aston Villa in 1930 and Wolves in 1931. The thumping came a week on from lifting the Carabao Cup and ending the club's six-year wait for silverware. Fans and pundits slammed the United players following the loss at Anfield with many pointing the finger at some of the more experienced members of the dressing room.
