Paul Pogba played an incredible cross-the-field pass, which was converted by Rashford with a world-class finish.
This was Marcus Rashford’s 7th goal in the league for the side.

Friendly reminder that Mourinho benched Pogba in his last 4 games. Paul Pogba. Benched.

That pass from Pogba and that finish from Rashford are both world class. Devastating. This is about as far removed from those god awful first halves under Mourinho as you’ll get. Enthralling 45 mins of footie #thfc #mufc

It is SO good to watch our team and see that we’ve actually been doing things in training. Our quick counterattacking is causing havoc and they don’t know how to deal with our front three, add Pogba to the mix and it’s an incredible front four.

Wow. Sensational pass by @paulpogba, clinical finish by @MarcusRashford. Hate to say it but maybe this Solskjaer thing is for real… United look a top class team again. Very irritating. #THFCvMUFC

8 – No player has been involved in more Premier League goals since Ole Gunnar Solskjær became caretaker manager at Manchester United than Paul Pogba (eight – four goals, four assists). Dangerous. #TOTMUN pic.twitter.com/yis6RJMtJj

Superb finish by @MarcusRashford after a brilliant pass from @paulpogba. Spurs vulnerable to the counter-attack, which Manchester United are looking to exploit.
