I am very happy that he is back. The skills was something else. This are the things he did last two seasons and scored 30+. After today’s match, I believe he will do very well this season”-Marcus Rashford pulled off the most satisfying skill of the season so far in Europa League clash against FC Twente.
Marcus Rashford showcased an impressive display of skill during Wednesday night’s Europa League clash between Manchester United and FC Twente, which has captivated viewers.
In the 32nd minute at Old Trafford, Rashford faced former Norwich City striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel in a one-on-one situation. The 26-year-old skillfully executed an elastico, maneuvering the ball through Van Wolfswinkel’s legs before making a precise pass to Lisandro Martinez.
Although Martinez was unable to convert the chance, Rashford’s brilliant move drew significant attention. One fan remarked, “When Rashford is in form, no defender can keep up with him.” Another said, “Ronaldinho would be proud.”
Recently, Rashford has been hinting at a return to his best form, and his first-half performance against Twente reflected that. He successfully completed four take-ons, created two chances, and won all his duels—attributes that had been lacking in previous seasons. Fans on social media quickly reacted, with one stating, “Rashford is the true winner of this match, no matter the outcome,” and another commenting, “Rashford’s elastico… he’s found his joy again.” A third fan noted, “Rashford has really hit his stride lately; confidence is essential.”
Another added, “A confident Rashford is a daunting opponent,” while a fifth pointed out, “Marcus Rashford completed 3 out of 3 take-ons in the first 20 minutes against Twente, surpassing his average from last season.”
Shortly after Rashford’s remarkable elastico energized the Old Trafford crowd, Christian Eriksen scored for United with a well-placed shot from inside the box, capping off a commanding first-half display. Marcus Rashford’s performance in that Europa League clash highlights his growing confidence and skill. The elastico move and his overall contributions show he’s finding his rhythm again. It seems fans and pundits alike are eager to see how he builds on this momentum in upcoming matches.
