Erik ten Hag makes bizarre comparison as he heaps praise on struggling Man United star

Erik ten Hag made reference to Cristiano Ronaldo’s ketchup bottle analogy after Marcus Rashford returned to the scoresheet against Southampton.

Rashford’s goal in United’s 3-0 win against the Saints on Saturday afternoon was not only his first of the season, but his first in 12 matches in all competitions.

The 26-year-old has come under fire for his performances over the last 12 months and has also been involved in several incidents off the pitch, but Ten Hag and United will be hoping this goal sparks Rashford into life.
