"It is unbelievable . I can understand Thursday. The second time is always more difficult . Four goals in two games", were the words of Manchester United's Coach Louis Van Gaal after Marcus Rashford scored a brace to sink Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday 28 February 2016.

Rashford wasn't even a striker when coming up the ranks at United's academy, he only had to play a striking role for the first time in an FA Youth Cup against Leicester after an injury to first choice striker Demetri Mitchell, and since then the Wythensgawe born player has not looked back. Rashford was unknown 72 hours ago before he replaced Anthony Martial in the Europa league game against Midtjylland, scoring and hence changing his history . In that game the 18 year old scored a brace and has gone on to score four goals in three days and two games after scoring against Arsenal in the EPL. Rashford took two minutes 45 seconds to score his brace in the Arsenal game and also ended the game with one assist , meaning he contributed to all three of United's goal in the game.

Rashford has made history in the process as the 3rd youngest Manchester United player to score a brace on his debut after Ruud Van Nistelrooy and James Wilson . Rashford it should be noted played for Moss Rangers Club in Manchester which produced the likes of Danny Welbeck, Tyler Blackett, Wes Brown, Ravel Morrison and Borthwick-Jackson.


Today's exploits is not surprising for those who have been following the young boy's career as Rashford joined United on July 1 2014 and went on to become the highest goalscorer with 13 goals for the Under-18 side. He also scored in all six games he played in September 2015.


For United fans after so much sorrows and pains, the victory over Arsenal with a second string team is one victory to savour . Louis Van Gaal's team were dubbed as boring and playing old fashioned football but who cares after they have scored 10 goals in three games and one week. It's Glory Glory United again.
