Marcus Rashford showcased an incredible display of skill during Wednesday night’s Europa League match between Manchester United and FC Twente – and we can’t stop watching.

 

In the 32nd minute at Old Trafford, Rashford faced off against former Norwich City striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel.

 

After keeping the ball in play, the 26-year-old forward pulled off a perfectly-timed elastico through Van Wolfswinkel’s legs, followed by a precise pass to Lisandro Martinez.

 

Although Martinez couldn’t capitalize with a shot on target, likely surprised by Rashford’s quick feet, it didn’t take away from the brilliance of the skill.

 

One fan wrote: “Man I’m telling you, when Rashford is on form there isn’t a defender that can deal with him,” and another said: “Ronaldinho would be proud.”

Rashford has recently shown signs of returning to top form, with his first-half performance echoing that resurgence.

 

In addition to completing four dribbles, he created two chances and won all of his duels – qualities that had been lacking from his game in recent seasons.

 

Here’s how social media reacted to his first-half showing against FC Twente.

 

One fan stated: “Rashford is the winner of this game regardless of what happens,” while another added: “Rashford elastico. He got his joy back. Pshh.”

 

A third said: “Rashford has honestly found his rhythm again, confidence is truly key.”

A fourth commented: “A confident Rashford is truly a terrifying player to face,” while a fifth added: “Marcus Rashford completed 3/3 dribbles in the first 20 minutes vs. Twente. That’s more than he averaged in a game last season.”

Shortly after Rashford’s elastico electrified Old Trafford, in-form midfielder Christian Eriksen scored for United with a well-placed effort from inside the box.
