Man Utd fans love what Rashford did to Mbappe after PSG win

Rashford scored United's winner in Paris as they fought back to reach the last eight of the Champions League

Marcus Rashford was Manchester United's hero as they stunned PSG in the Champions League.

United had a mountain to climb in the last-16 encounter as they travelled to the French capital without 10 players, trailing 2-0.

But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's players delivered an incredible performance as Romelu Lukaku scored twice before Rashford's last-gasp penalty.

The win sparked wild scenes on and off the pitch but Rashford showed his humility as he consoled PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe.

The pair had been compared in recent months but it was Mbappe who appeared to have the edge after the first leg at Old Trafford.

But Rashford grabbed the headlines in Paris as United ensured another memorable European night.

Unsurprisingly, United fans were loving the sportsmanship of their 21-year-old striker.

Romelu Lukaku was also seen consoling PSG defender Presnel Kimpembe at the final whistle.

The Frenchman was adjudged to have handled Diogo Dalot's late strike for the penalty award and was seen in tears at full-time.

But while his teammates were heading over to the travelling United support, Lukaku hugged Kimpembe and attempted to lift his spirits.

Lukaku also revealed after the encounter what he told Rashford before the late penalty.

United's No.9 was on a hat-trick, as he was against Southampton on Saturday, but was happy for his strike partner to step up and score.

"I was happy that he scored. He came to me and wanted to shoot," Lukaku told beIN Sport.

"I said 'man, this is your time. Do it for yourself and us'."

what is the most frightening thing that you have ever seen happen in life

It’s a man looking over his family during the British Raj in India. There were many cases of cannibalism and he feared someone would try to kill and eat his children or wife. I acknowledge this is a difficult picture to look at— but I included it for a reason. Many people in the US/West aren’t even aware of the terrible famines that swept through India and which are comparable to the holocaust in deaths (an estimated ~30 million people have died in famines in India). This was taken from the Great Famine of 1876–1878, which was far worse than the infamous Bengal Famine. It was caused by a crop failure/drought and was exacerbated by the crown’s export of wheat abroad. In total, 5.6 - 9 million people died (it’s hard to get exact figures). And within huge statistics like these, are forgotten stories. These are individuals and families, who slowly faced the despair of knowing they had no food and would have no food in the near future. They faced the horror of knowing there was ...
