Fans furious at what one Man Utd player did before Phil Foden's screamer

Fans on social media were all furious at what one Manchester United player did before Phil Foden netted the equaliser in the Manchester derby.

55 minutes into the Manchester derby, Foden drifted inside Victor Lindelof and rifled in a strike into the top right corner from the edge of the box to make the score 1-1.

After Foden's strike fans on social media were quick to berate Marcus Rashford, who moments earlier had been charging down City's goal only to be muscled off the ball by Kyle Walker. Rashford claimed a foul but play was waved on.

Like the officials, fans on social media payed little attention to Rashford's complaints. Indeed, many were furious that Rashford had squandered an opportunity to put United two goals ahead.

Writing on X, formally Twitter, one person said: "They aren’t f****g up everything like Rashford is. He’s being served chances on a plate and still manages to f*** them up."

Another said: "Since that worldie, #Rashford has done nothing. Only dived before Foden (who’s been sensational) scored his worldie."

A third added: "Rashford is the joke for looking for a cheap free kick."

A fourth said: "No, Rashford was soft. He had the pace to beat Walker but he didn't trust himself."

One person with sympathy for Rashford's position was United boss Ten Hag. The Dutchman threw a water battle on the floor in disgust at Rashford not being awarded a free-kick.

Earlier in the encounter Rashford had put United ahead with a wonder-strike of his own.

Bruno Fernandes teed up the England international, who rifled a first-time shot off the crossbar and into the net from some 25 yards.
