Marcus Rashford has won an FA Cup, a Europa League and a Carabao Cup. He made his debut aged 18 and right now he is 21. Still very young, it's hard to believe that this guy has already made 100 appearances for Manchester United.

Three years ago, a certain Mancunian named Marcus Rashford rose to prominence on a European night at Old Trafford and since then, the Englishman hasn't looked back. His rise in a Manchester United jersey has been nothing short of a fairytale.

Marcus Rashford right now is Manchester United's number 10 and he is a proper Red Devils fan. The Englishman has all the attributes to be successful at the biggest club in England.

Since his debut, so much has happened in his career and in this article, we take a look at some of the best moments in Marcus Rashford's Manchester United career so far.

Manchester United facing Midtjylland in the round of 32 of the Europa League found themselves 2-1 down in the first leg. The second leg was at Old Trafford and Marcus Rashford was in United's squad. In the warm-up, Anthony Martial got injured and at the very last moment, Rashford was drafted into the playing XI.

Marcus Rashford introduced himself to the Old Trafford faithful by scoring his first goal in the 63th minute and he scored his second minutes after his first, which lead Manchester United to a comprehensive 5-1 in the second leg. Marcus Rashford also broke the 50-year long record held by George Best for being the youngest ever goalscorer for Manchester United in European competitions.

For any player, his debut goal holds the highest regard and at the age of 18 only, showing no nerves, Marcus Rashford announced himself to the world.

Anthony Martial wasn't ready yet as Manchester United welcomed Arsenal to Old Trafford days after beating Midtjylland in the Europa League round of 32 tie. The then Manchester United manager, Louis Van Gaal gave the 18-year-old Marcus Rashford a start against a big team and the result was no different.

Marcus Rashford astonishingly scored his first Premier League goal very early into the game and he doubled his and Manchester United's tally minutes after. He then also set up Ander Herrera for Manchester United's third. Eventually, United won that game 3-2 in a brilliant match.

Marcus Rashford with this performance showed the world that his goals against Midtjylland were no fluke. What was great to see was the fact that the then 18-year-old didn't show any signs of nervousness or fear against a top 4 side in the Premier League.

#3 His two goals against Liverpool

For any Manchester United player, the biggest matches of their lives are against the Red Devils arch nemesis Liverpool. Marcus Rashford growing up, would have despised Liverpool like every other Manchester United fan and would have dreamt of scoring against them.

He did exactly that when Manchester United met Liverpool at Old Trafford in the 2017/18 season of the Premier League. Starting his first match since December that season, Rashford showed again what he is capable of.

He scored United's first very early and that was a brilliant goal. He sold Trent Alexander-Arnold with a check inside and unleashed a thunderbolt in almost Cristiano Ronaldo fashion to give Manchester United the lead. He scored his second minutes after giving a two goal advantage to the Red Devils and setting Old Trafford alight.

Marcus Rashford in many ways that day showed what he can do and still only 21 years old, who knows what he can go on to achieve at his home club.
