The United academy graduate did not waste time to prove what a quality forward he is as he opened the scoring for the visitors in the 17th minute.

Rashford's goal was a thing of beauty as he rifled home an early shot from 25 yards that flew past the diving Aaron Ramsdale’s right hand and into the bottom corner.

The forward's marvellous strike sent fans into a meltdown, with some taking to social media to hail the England international.

One posted:

"Marcus Rashford is currently the best footballer in the world."

A second added:

"Marcus Rashford is just unstoppable right now!"

A third commented:

"Marcus Rashford Nutmegs Partey, scores a screamer."

While a fourth tweeted:

"Marcus Rashford, a different breed this season. What a goal!"

However, United's goal courtesy of Rashford's screamer did not last long as Arsenal restored parity soon after through Eddie Nketiah, who steered an accomplished header past David de Gea from six yards after he caught Wan-Bissaka napping.

Was Saka mocking Rashford?

Sports Brief has also reported that fans were sharply divided on the Arsenal star's choice of celebration after scoring a stunner against Manchester United.

Saka scored the second goal to give Arsenal the lead after Eddie Nketiah had cancelled out Rashford's beautiful opener.

The 21-year-old was allowed to weave his way to the edge of the penalty area before unleashing a ferocious shot which flew past a scampering David de Gea. He then dashed towards the corner flag pointing to his temple as Rashford has done since the World Cup break. The Manchester United star scored his 9th goal in 9 consecutive appearances and rushed to the away end pulling off what is now becoming his signature celebration.
