Disturbing footage of Marcus Rashford limping after Barcelona win have got Man United fans worried
Marcus Rashford has left fans concerned after being captured 'limping' on the back of Manchester United’s win against Barcelona.
On Thursday night, Rashford started for United as they took on La Liga giants Barcelona in the Europa League playoff second leg.
Despite going into the half-time interval 1-0 down courtesy of Robert Lewandowski’s 18th-minute penalty, United produced a brilliant performance in the second period.
Goals from Fred and Antony completed a stunning 2-1 win to send Old Trafford into pandemonium as Erik ten Hag’s side sealed a place in the last 16.
However, United fans’ moods have been dampened by a video of Rashford after the match. You can watch the footage below.

The 25-year-old was substituted in the 88th minute after he went down with what looked like a minor knock.
However, the video captured by a fan waiting outside Old Trafford appeared to show Rashford walking with a slight limp as he exited the stadium.
United fans are naturally concerned as Rashford has been the club’s star man this season.
One fan said: “Hoping it's not anything serious.”
Another tweeted: “Yh united can never have nice things always something that’ll destroy us.”
Rashford’s latest Instagram post will also make United fans worry even more ahead of Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United.
The forward posted a picture on his Instagram story with an emoji which has a frown and a white bandage.
So far this season, Rashford has been in fine form after scoring 24 goals in 37 appearances across all competitions.
Former United striker Robin van Persie said: “Rashford is a unique talent. You could see that in the Premier League at an early age.
“He is now at a stage where it doesn’t matter who he is playing, if it’s Barcelona, or in England, or a cup game, he can trust his own qualities.
“He is physically very strong, mentally he is very confident, that is connected as well to [manager] Erik ten Hag because he gives him the confidence and the stage, so for him it’s just a matter of being fit, enjoy the game, it doesn’t matter against who, he will do the job.”
