Marcus Rashford, a player for the England team, said that, in moments like this Tuesday, when he scored a double against Wales, it was for those who play football.
The English footballer, chosen MVP of the match, pointed to the sky after the first goal, as he later explained in a press conference, because a few days ago he lost one of his closest friends. “He’s a great guy and one of my supporters,” Rashford said.
In sporting matters, Rashford denied it was the happiest moment of his career, insisting that for him his favorite moments were winning trophies, but explained the importance of scoring two goals in one setting which is like this.
Ambitious
“It feels good. For moments like this football game. I’m very happy that we’ve made it to the next round because I have a lot of ambitions in this tournament and I think we can play even better than what we’re done now,” said the Englishman.
“I was a little disappointed after the result against the United States,” Rashford admitted. “I think we could have played much better so it was important to play a good game today. We defended brilliantly in the first half and then it was just a matter of killing the game fast and taking our chances.”
