Man Utd fans can't believe what the club's account posted about Marcus Rashford during Rosenborg defeat

United were beaten 1-0 by Rosenborg on Monday.

Manchester United fans have questioned a post made by the club's official Twitter account about Marcus Rashford during their pre-season defeat to Rosenborg.

United had a tricky start to their pre-season preparations, losing 1-0 to the Norwegian club in Trondheim on Monday afternoon.

Noah Holm scored a late winner for Rosenborg in the third minute of second-half injury time to inflict defeat on Erik ten Hag's side.

It was an unexpected result, with several first-team stars featuring for United in the match.

Marcus Rashford, Casemiro, Mason Mount and Jonny Evans all played in the game alongside a number of the club's youngsters.

A post made about Rashford during the game from United's official account prompted a reaction from fans after the final whistle.

The clip showed Rashford controlling a cross-field ball with his chest and playing it past an opposing defender, before he is tackled – with the ball going out of play.

United posted the clip alongside the caption: "Nicely done, Marcus Rashford."

United fans have since questioned why the club highlighted what was an unremarkable passage of play in the game.

"What's this? Be serious," posted one fan on X.

Another added: "What did he do?"

While another fan said: "He has gone past one player and lost the ball. The standards have never been lower at the football club as they currently are. Sad to see."

While a fourth posted: "Please delete this you are embarrassing him."

Ten Hag called out his players for their performance after the match, insisting that their fitness levels were not a valid excuse for the result.

"The result is not secondary. Our performance as a team is by far not good enough," he said.

"This is not the standard for top football. We can't be match fit at this moment. They have a much higher fitness level but we are Manchester United we must perform better."

United continue their preparations with a match against Rangers at Murrayfield on Saturday before they travel to the United States for their pre-season tour starting with a game against Arsenal on July 28.
