Paul Scholes praises two Manchester United attackers vs Arsenal

Former midfielder Paul Scholes praised Manchester United duo Marcus Rashford and Antony during the Reds' narrow 3-2 defeat by Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

United conceded late on for the second game running to be denied a respectable point at the home of the league leaders. Eddie Nketiah netted a 90th-minute winner to restore Arsenal's lead after Lisandro Martinez's earlier equaliser.

Erik ten Hag's side had clawed themselves level just before the hour mark, thanks to Martinez's first goal for the club, after Nketiah and Bukayo Saka had turned the game on its head following Marcus Rashford's first-half opener. Arsenal dominated for long spells in the second half and battered the United penalty area in pursuit of a winner.
