The 25-year-old thought he had achieved the milestone earlier on in the first half but the goal was chalked off by VAR.

The goal had initially been given only for VAR to rule it out after Wout Weghorst was adjudged to have been offside.

Rashford later took to Twitter to express his fury at seeing his goal fail to stand.

"Unfortunately, VAR got the better of me again today. That's 3 times this season (angry emoji)," the forward tweeted.

"Breaking the record for consecutive goals at OT would have been incredible, but I'm proud to have equalled Dennis Viollet’s record," he added.
