Ten Hag created a new achievement for Manchester United coach Rashford came off the bench and scored twice


Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag substituted a brilliant first-half goal in the final minutes of Manchester United's 1-0 lead in today's Carabao Cup last-eight tie against Charlton Athletic . The 22-year-old striker Anthony, played by the 25-year-old attacking main force Marcus Rashford as a substitute striker, scored twice to ensure that Manchester United advanced to the Carabao Cup semi-finals with a perfect 3-0 scoreline.


Manchester United's shortest tenure ever


When coach Ten Hag was asked by reporters after the game whether the decision to let Rashford play at the last minute was an accident, Ten Hag responded, "The team originally planned to let the 30-year-old midfielder Christian Eriksson , 30-year-old midfielder Casemiro and Marcus Rashford played in the second half because of their ability to keep the team in a certain rhythm on the pitch."


It is worth mentioning that since Ten Hag took over and coached Manchester United in April last year, he has achieved today's 20th win in the first season. He has only lost 7 games in the 27 games he has coached. He won 8 consecutive victories in this event and became the head coach of Manchester United who has the shortest coaching time in history but has achieved great results.


It is believed that under the leadership of Ten Hag, Manchester United is about to return to the peak moment when former coach Felix Mourinho won the English League Cup and the Europa League in 2017.

On the other hand, after Rashford was placed on the bench late last month because he was late for the team's pre-match meeting and contributed a goal to help Manchester United beat Wolves 1-0, this game is the regular starter No. 2 A match in which a substitute came on.


Despite being a substitute player, Rashford did not lose his spirit at all. He scored twice at the last moment and also scored his seventh goal in 6 consecutive games on behalf of Manchester United since the World Cup in Qatar!


And Rashford also represented the England national team in the 2022 Qatar World Cup and contributed 3 goals in 5 games. At present, he has contributed goals in 6 consecutive games on behalf of the club. From 2022 to 2023, he has contributed 14 goals and 5 assists for Manchester United this season.

Rashford's performance also drew praise from 29-year-old Manchester United captain Harry Maguire, who described Rashford as an important player in the lineup and said his best form and scoring performances are yet to come. It doesn't stop there.


According to the schedule, currently ranked No. 4 in the Premier League, Manchester United will face No. 2 rival Manchester City this Saturday, and the two sides are likely to compete for the Carabao Cup on the same stage.
