Marcus Rashford beats Neymar and Jadon Sancho in eye-opening statistic
30.01.2022 - 08:49 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Marcus Rashford has topped the list of most nutmegs in the five European Leagues beating Paris Saint-Germain duo Neymar and Kylian Mbappe as well as teammate Jadon Sancho.
The 24-year-old left defenders embarrassed 21 times last season, three more than the flamboyant Brazilian and Eden Hazard from his iconic 2017/18 season with Chelsea.
With the list running since the 2017/18 league campaign, Rashford also made the list a season earlier where he completed 13 nutmegs.
So far this season, Rashford missed the opening stages of United's league campaign through his recovery from shoulder surgery and has failed to live up to his quality but did find the net in successive matches prior to the international break.
Despite the Premier League on a two-week winter break, the attacker has stepped up his training by continuing his development in Dubai during the Reds' time off.
He was joined by Jesse Lingard and Diogo Dalot in one social media post after Ralf Rangnick's side made it back-to-back wins moving into fourth prior to the brief stoppage.
After his match-winning strike against West Ham, he told MUTV: "It obviously does good for your confidence. But the biggest thing that can help your confidence is by winning games.
"When the team is winning games, consecutive games, hopefully we can use that for fuel and motivation to go on and win the next few games. It [the result] obviously has a lot of significance, there's a few teams behind us that have a few games on us.
"Nevertheless, it's nice to go into the break in fourth position and in the Premier League you never know what's going to happen.
"There's a lot still to play for and the most important thing is there are still trophies to play for."
