Great Header! - Solskjaer Compares Rashford To Ronaldo Again

Manchester United Boss, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has again compared Marcus Rashford to Cristiano Ronaldo after he scored with his head, to inspire United's win over Newcastle United

Rashford scored his 11th Premier League goal of the season, inspiring his team to a 4-1 Boxing Day victory at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer has compared the 22-year-old to former United star Ronaldo previously and the manager did so again after Rashford's superb header.

Talking to a news conference after the match, Solskjaer said;

"He is a physical specimen. He's looking after himself, working hard in the gym. When you've got that spring, it's just about having courage and getting up there.

"I remember a boy I used to play with that used to head it quite well when he was close to goal. And we compare them quite often.

"So, that's another string to his bow Marcus that Cristiano used to get when he was getting to that age as well."

Anthony Martial netted a brace and Mason Greenwood also scored against Newcastle, who had taken the lead through Matty Longstaff.

United currently sitting seventh on the Epl table, four points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, and make the trip to Burnley on Saturday.
