Man Utd 3-0 Forest: Rashford stars to send Red Devils 1 point away from top four

  /  R47

Marcus Rashford continued his fine form as Manchester United dominated Nottingham Forest in the Premier League to show further signs of their revival.

The in-form England forward, who scored three goals at the World Cup, swept in a well-worked corner routine from Christian Eriksen to put United ahead.

Rashford then teed up Anthony Martial to fire in a shot which Forest keeper Wayne Hennessey should have saved.

Fred clipped in a late third as fifth-placed United sealed a deserved win.

Since losing 6-3 in the Manchester derby, Erik ten Hag's side have lost just once in eight league matches.
