ikeouts.NICE PLAYCleveland 3B Jose Ramirez made a diving backhanded stop near the line on one hop of a ball hit
Louis van Gaal hailed the unbelievable impact of Marcus Rashford after the young striker scored twice in Manchester Uniteds 3-2 win over Arsenal. The 18-year-old only made his debut for the club on Thursday, scoring twice on that occasion too against Midtjylland.Ander Herrera added to Rashfords two first half goals to ensure goals from Danny Welbeck and Mesut Ozil for Arsenal were in vain. Its unbelievable when you are 18 years old and you come in, Van Gaal told Sky Sports. I can understand it like last Thursday against Midtjylland because you are coming in and you do your thing without any pressure. Marcus Rashfords fairytale continued as he scored twice on his Premier League debut to help Manchester United to a 3-2 win over Arsenal at Old Trafford. But the second time is more difficult and he played a very good match. The things I asked of him, he scores again - four goals in two matches - that is an average that is unusual!You get a chance and you have to perform, you have to do the things that we are asking. I have always said it is not a matter of age, it is a matter of quality and he shows it. Rashford delighted Young striker thrilled with double against Arsenal Asked in his press where Rashfords debut ranked, the former Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Ajax boss placed the teenager in an elite group.I can imagine a lot of them, he said. Patrick Kluivert makes the winning goal (for Ajax) in the Super Cup in the Netherlands. Xavi, fantastic against I think Valladolid (for Barcelona) and also Thomas Muller a fantastic debut. Marcus Rashford grabbed two goals and an assist on his Premier League debut Van Gaal was delighted with the performance of a side missing a number of key players and including several youngsters aside from Rashford.When you see the circumstances, the many injuries and a lot of youngsters are participating, it was a great match, he added. Rashford (left) celebrates with Juan Mata after opening the scoring Also for the fans, they were very enthusiastic throughout the game. We scored goals, we are defending our result and we did it much better than the last matches because we didnt give many chances away.The second half I changed the shape a little bit because I wanted to defend the result. We were more compact in the second half and you can score also so Im very happy because its an important victory over Arsenal - who in my opinion are one of the best teams in the Premier League. Watch Louis van Gaal remonstrate with the fourth official, a confrontation that ends up with the United manager lying flat on his back The key factor is always that you dare to play and we can play very good but we have to move the ball more quickly and we have to switch the game more frequently. The two goals that we scored in the first half were through the switching of the game.That we have improved because we did it, in this game in any case, but we have to do it more I think. Thats the key I think and also that we are defending like a team. Also See: Rashford double downs Arsenal As it happened Man Utd fixtures Get a £10 free bet! Discount Football Jerseys Throwback .
