EPL: Team News As High Flying Southampton Clash With Man Utd

In-form Southampton will these weekend host the red devils at the English Premier League (EPL).

Manchester United striker, Marcus Rashford, has said penalty takers would continue to change after he took a spot-kick ahead of Bruno Fernandes this week.

Fernandes passed up the chance to score a first-half hat-trick in the 4-1 win over Istanbul Basaksehir in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

In a previous Champions League fixture against RB Leipzig last month, Rashford allowed Anthony Martial to take a penalty ahead of him.

Rashford has now explained he is keen for players in the squad to keep scoring in order to keep confidence high.

“There was a similar situation during the Leipzig game when I could have got my first career hat-trick,” Rashford told Stretty News.

“As a striker your confidence comes from scoring goals consistently and for that reason it was important Tony [Martial] had the opportunity to get on the scoresheet.

“Thankfully I got the hat-trick and we got a fantastic result against a very tough team but what was important at the time was that the team felt good, confident and motivated to push on with the upcoming run of fixtures.

“It’s a really busy time and we all play a role in the team’s success.
