In the end it was given to Marcus Rashford as the author of the second goal Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday against Newcastle (2-0). Rashford thought he had scored the goal (his 25th this season) but the ball was deflected by Newcastle defender Sven Botman and it was ruled an own goal.
The The English Football League (EFL), on which the Carabao Cup depends, reviewed the play and confirmed on Monday that the goal was awarded to Rashford, the competition’s top scorer, the English League Cup, with 6 ‘targets’.
With the goal scored against Newcastle, Rashford extends the best streak of his career, with 17 goals in their last 19 games. Under the command of Erik ten Hag, current United manager, the English international striker returned to his best version and improved it.
in the final on Sunday former madridista Casemiro (chosen MVP) he put the ‘red devils’ ahead with a header, taking advantage of the ball sent to him by Luke Shaw in the 33′ to beat Loris Karius. In 39′ it gave the impression that Karius (who followed and made some good interventions) could have done more. Rashford scored with his left foot, although the goal was initially awarded to Botman.
