FootballMarcus Rashford Identifies Favourite Goal He Has Ever Scored, It Was vs Chelsea
- Marcus Rashford has named his favourite goal he has ever scored
- The forward has bagged 29 goals and 11 assists this season
- He previously stated his favourite goal was his strike in his first Manchester derby, but that has since changed
Marcus Rashford appears to have changed tune on his favourite goal for Manchester United over the years.
Since breaking into the first team under Louis Van Gaal, Rashford has emerged as a prized asset at Old Trafford, and is now a crucial player for current boss Erik Ten Hag.
This season, he has been in sensational form, bagging a total of 29 goals across all competitions.
Notably, 10 of those strikes have been winning goals in the Premier League, according to Opta, the first time a United player has achieved this feat since Wayne Rooney in the 2009/10 season.
There is no question that Rashford has scored some superb goals for United in his fairly young career, but which one is his favourite?
In the past, Rashford openly expressed how special his goal against Manchester City in his first-ever derby was.
But in terms of his favourite strike, Rashford has reserved that slot for his stunning free kick against Chelsea back in 2019.
Rashford's favourite goal
It was in the Carabao Cup round of 16, and United came up against the Blues, who were managed by Frank Lampard then.
Rashford got his side’s opener from the penalty spot in the first half, but Chelsea drew level thanks to Michy Batshuayi’s solo effort after some sloppy defending from Harry Maguire, as reported on Sky Sports.
With the game finely poised, Rashford came up with a stunning winner from a free kick late on.
Despite being 30 yards from goal, Rashford decided to make an audacious attempt from the dead ball, and his curling, swerving and dipping effort gave goalie Willy Caballero no chance.
