Marcus Rashford stepped onto the pitch for the second time in a Barcelona shirt during their dominant 7-3 win over FC Seoul on Thursday, coming off the bench at halftime with his team leading 3-2 — www.naijnaira.com reports.
His earlier outing against Vissel Kobe was a shorter cameo, but this time, Rashford had a full half to impact the game. As covered by Mundo Deportivo, the English winger made a strong case for more minutes with his direct runs, sharp passing, and confident link-up play on the left wing.
Statman Dave broke down his performance: an 88% pass accuracy, three successful dribbles, two shots on target, one chance created, and an assist for Ferran Torres’ late goal.
His individual highlights have been circulating online, earning widespread applause from fans. Spanish media echoed that sentiment, describing him as a “constant threat” who “linked up well with teammates and created danger.”
Football Espana rated him a 7/10, noting, “Bright performance again from Rashford… just missed a chance to give Torres a hat-trick, but overall impressive.”
Barcelona next face Daegu FC on Monday, August 4, and Rashford will aim to open his goal tally.
