'If he scores seven, you want to score eight' - Rashford using England team-mate Kane as goalscoring benchmark

Marcus Rashford has refuted claims by Michael Owen that he lacks the desire to be a top goalscorer, saying he tests himself against Harry Kane during England training sessions in a bid to improve as a striker.

England take on Bulgaria in Euro 2020 qualifying on Saturday, with Rashford seemingly likely to start in a front three alongside Kane and Raheem Sterling.

The 21-year-old Rashford got his Premier League campaign off to a fine start with two goals in Manchester United's 4-0 victory over Chelsea, but has failed to score since, missing a penalty in the 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace at Old Trafford.
