Marcus Rashford Achieves Barcelona Feat He Never Managed at Man Utd

Marcus Rashford achieved something for Barcelona that he failed to do while at Manchester United.

After falling out of favour at United under Ruben Amorim, Rashford left Old Trafford on loan for Barcelona during the summer transfer window.

Since making his move to Spain, the 27-year-old has produced some impressive displays.

Last week, Rashford was the star of the show as he netted a brace to help Barcelona beat Newcastle United 2-1 in the UEFA Champions League.

After being dropped by Barcelona boss Hansi Flick for last weekend's fixture against Getafe, Rashford returned to the starting XI on Thursday night.

Explaining his call to put Rashford on the bench, Flick said: "For Rashford, it's normal not to play. Matches are every three or four days. We have to manage his minutes.

"You saw that with Fermin. He played many minutes, and we have to take that into account. We got three points, 3-0. Everything is great. We must focus on our game.

"We scored three goals, and it's not always easy to score three goals against a strong team. I don't want to talk about the opponent; I want to talk about my team. We must focus on our game and our plan."

Against Real Oviedo, Barcelona had to come from behind following Alberto Reina's goal in the 33rd minute.

Eventually, goals from Eric Garcia, Robert Lewandowski and Ronald Araujo secured a 3-1 win.

Rashford provided an assist for Araujo's goal after his corner found the Uruguayan defender's head.

During his time at United, Rashford appeared to have never assisted a goal directly from a corner, something that he has now managed for the Catalan Club.

As a result of their victory over Real Oviedo, Barcelona moved up to 16 points in the La Liga table and are only two points off fierce rivals Real Madrid, who have won all six matches so far this season.

Flick's men will be back in La Liga action this weekend when they take on Real Sociedad at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Saturday afternoon.
