Michael Owen and Michail Antonio agree that the World Cup acted as a form booster for Marcus Rashford ahead of his terrific goal-scoring run for Manchester United.
The attacker netted three times for England in Qatar before netting in eight of his nine Premier League games since. He’s also added five goals in FA Cup and League Cup games since the break and sits on 21 goals for the season.
Rashford was named as the Premier League’s player of the month for January and has already found the net three times in February. West Ham striker Antonio pointed out that his stint with the Three Lions in Qatar has done wonders for his confidence.
