MARCUS RASHFORD has explained his outrageous piece of skill in the build-up to his goal in the Carabao Cup final.
The in-form forward netted Man United’s second goal against Newcastle as the club won their first piece of silverware in six years.
Rashford’s deflected finish was able to get over Loris Karius, but it was his move before that which caught the attention of fans.
The United star controlled the ball before passing it to Wout Wegorst while airborne.
When asked by a fan “Rashford what did you do?” on Twitter, the England international replied saying: “It was a heel-to-heel flick but in the air.”
The move was fantastic as he set off Weghorst before making his own inverted overlap run in return.

A second tweeted: “Bruh! I watched this over and over and over again!! I’m like ah buh why ain’t no one talking bout this! Oboy Rashidi.”
While a third commented: “Insane technique. Rashford you beauty.”
