Rashford scored the opener and made the second for Anthony Martial as United moved to within one point of fourth-placed Tottenham.

Manchester United 3 Nottingham Forest 0 MARCUS RASHFORD CONTINUED his rich vein of form as Manchester United closed in on the Premier League top four with a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

The 25-year-old has been back to his best this season and scored his eighth goal in 13 games for club and country, looking a real threat throughout the match. Having conceded six at Manchester City and five at Arsenal, Steve Cooper’s side will have arrived at Old Trafford with a sense of trepidation about what was to come.

The hosts took the lead in the 19th minute with a goal straight off the training ground as Rashford darted to the front post to meet Christian Eriksen’s low corner and swept into the far corner to draw level with Eric Cantona on 64 Premier League goals for United.
