Wolverhampton 1-1 Manchester United: 5 Hits and Flops

#4 Hit: Marcus Rashford

Rashford held up possession well and created an assist during a purposeful start

Having netted a well-taken brace against Chelsea last time out, Rashford turned creator on this occasion while displaying the qualities to justify why his versatility is a welcome addition and not a hindrance for Solskjaer against Wolves here. He created nine assists across all competitions last term and has already got off the mark in the 2019/20 campaign, though he can consider himself unfortunate not to have more than one to his name from this encounter.

Operating ahead of Luke Shaw as a left-sided winger, the 21-year-old combined his pace and vision to good effect while retaining possession well and proving a nuisance for Wolves defenders too. 84% pass completion rate, he completed two crosses and one long ball while winning all three of his duels and drawing two fouls as well.

He didn't shy away from his responsibilities out of possession either, winning possession on five occasions while teeing up Martial perfectly with Shaw lurking closely midway through the first half. His quick feet and invention near the byline saw him create a superb chance for Martial minutes beforehand. Having left Ryan Bennett for dead, he delivered a devilish cross, but the 23-year-old was unable to connect before it swerved out for a goal-kick.

Like many, he drifted in-and-out of the game as time wore on before being replaced by Andreas Pereira in the dying minutes. After this display, though, questions will continue to intensify: is it time Ole plays both up-top together?
