Manchester United were left red-faced after forgetting about Norman Whiteside when publishing a list of the youngest players in the club's history to reach 200 appearances.

It came after Marcus Rashford reached the milestone and marked it with two goals in United's 4-0 win over Norwich City at Old Trafford.

United hailed Rashford as the third-youngest player to reach a double century of games behind George Best and Ryan Giggs.
