The striker born in 1997 encouraged himself and his teammates to quickly regain their spirits to look forward to the next matches.
“I wish I could be on the field to play today to correct the mistakes. We can’t stay sad about what happened. It’s important not to let the bad past affect us. At this time, we must trust and unite,” Marcus Rashford shared on his personal page.
Rashford is in impressive form since the 2022 World Cup. However, that is not enough to help Man United win a favorable result when marching to Anfield.
Rashford was substituted early and had to see the host team beaten by Liverpool with the biggest difference in history. In the last 10 times as a guest before “The Kop”, MU only scored 2 goals and the number of goals conceded was nearly 10 times higher (29 goals).
Not only Rashford, De Gea also spoke up after the historic defeat: “A catastrophic result should never be allowed to happen, especially with what we have shown in the past time. We mean it. “I have a duty to contribute to Man United, I have a responsibility to represent the club. We still have a lot of games ahead. What we need to do is focus on looking to the future.”
The historic loss to the Merseyside rival made MU almost no longer a chance to race for the Premier League title .
At this time, “Red Devils” are 14 points behind Arsenal in the rankings. Meanwhile, Liverpool are close to the Champions League group . “The Kop” is only 3 points behind Tottenham and still has a match in hand.
In the middle of the week, MU will have the first leg of the Europa League round of 16 against Betis. Coach Manuel Pellegrini’s teachers and students have just excellently held Real Madrid 0-0 in La Liga .
