Real Betis 0-1 Manchester United (agg 1-5): Marcus Rashford finishes superbly from 20 yards to seal Europa League quarter-final progress for Erik ten Hag's side after Spaniards failed to capitalise on their poor first-half display

Marcus Rashford was 25 yards from goal when Casemiro floated a crossfield pass to him at the Estadio Benito Villamarin last night. Only Real Betis could tell you why one of the hottest strikers in Europe right now was left unmarked.

Maybe because it felt like there was no imminent threat. Maybe because Rashford had just missed two one-on-ones in the space of three minutes early in the second half.

But players like him will only let you off so many times. Rashford controlled the ball and used the time and space he had to take one touch and then another.
