Manchester City star Kyle Walker has revealed Marcus Rashford's nickname in the England squad.
Rashford opened the scoring for Manchester United against Walker's City with an outstanding strike from 25 yards out which went in off the crossbar.
The 26-year-old's shooting ability came as no surprise to Walker, who has frequently trained and played with his for the national team.
Walker admitted that there was little that City could do to prevent Rashford's goal in the eighth minute.
Walker told BBC 5 Live Sport: 'I think Rashy's hit a goal that I know he can hit. I've seen him over a number of years and we call it hammerfoot at England.
'He can just pull it back from anywhere and it's come off the crossbar and I don't think Ederson had any chance. What do you do? Sometimes you have to take your hats off to these goals and go in and regroup.'
Despite trailing at half time due to Rashford's goal, City managed to run out 3-1 winners in the Manchester derby following an impressive second half display.
Another member of the England squad, Phil Foden, scored a brace, with Erling Haaland adding another goal late on.
The win saw City move back to within one point of Premier League leaders Liverpool.
United, meanwhile, are in sixth place and are nine points adrift of the top four.
Rashford has faced criticism, with Alan Shearer questioning his body language during the FA Cup tie against Nottingham Forest.
Shearer, speaking on the BBC, said: 'Come on Marcus, get up. Stop waving your arms around. You've got to do better.
'I don't like his body language at times. He's trying to send a message out to the fans, it's not my fault. You as an individual have to take responsibility now and again for your actions on the pitch. Get up and get on with it.'
However, Rashford managed to respond in impressive style against City and will now be looking to finish the season strongly.

Bro C’mon let’s be honest for once at least We all know that ain’t foul man, how’s that a foul when walker didn’t foul Rashy and beside rashford had a chance to go in with the ball and e dived, come to Ederson even after Var review it we all know he won the ball and besides Granacho won’t play if he didn’t touch the ball I mean he would’ve been injured. So C’mon let’s just support football just because you’re an Liverpool fan doesn’t mean you shouldn’t support football, we all know City sides are better today and it’s well deserved win for them
That was a foul, he pulled rashford, although rashford should have done better.
