Marcus Rashford Punishes Sloppy Spurs After 55-Yard Bruno Fernandes Assist

Marcus Rashford scored a goal after the Tottenham defense was cut wide open by a 55-yard assist by Manchester United ace Bruno Fernandes in Thursday's EPL game.

Tottenham Hotspur's defense was cut wide open by a 55-yard ball from Bruno Fernandes just before half-time in Thursday's Premier League clash with Manchester United.

United were already 1-0 up when Fernandes launched a long-range pass towards Marcus Rashford.

It was 2-0 moments later as Rashford collected the ball, roasted Eric Dier one-on-one and then smashed a shot past Fraser Forster.

As brilliant as Bruno's pass was, it was such an easy goal for United to score.

With Spurs overcommitted in attack, Fernandes had a huge area to play into after collecting the ball from Antony, who had won it from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

Rashford, who had earlier claimed an assist for Sancho's opener, has now scored 29 goals for United this season.
