Hated and loved all over, Manchester United are next into the UCL after a Rashford penalty which was celebrated all over.
Jadon Sancho celebrated Manchester United’s dramatic win over Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night.
United produced one of their all-time great European performances to turn around a two-goal deficit from the Champions League last-16 first leg and beat the French champions 3-1 at the Parc des Princes.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men led 2-1 at half-time courtesy of Romelu Lukaku’sopportunistic brace before Marcus Rashford’s 94th-minute penalty sent Unitedinto the quarter-finals.
Speaking after the match, Rashford explained how he remained composed to find the top corner with his penalty.
“I think keep a cool head. They’re the kind of things I practice every day and I wanted to take it,” Rashford said. “We got the goal and we’re progressing.
“The wait before is probably the hardest thing, but it’s all part of the game, and those moments are what we live for you want to get through those moments and be smiling after.”
He added: “Everything seemed to be against us. But we’re used to surviving in these moments and today proved that one more time, we can still improve of course and we keep pushing.”
Rashford’s goal was celebrated in Germany by United target Sancho, who uploaded a video to his Instagram story of the 21-year-old’s winning spot-kick alongside the caption, “@marcusrashford Rashhyyyy” and a starry eyed emoji.
United tried to sign Sancho in 2017 before the England teenager moved to Dortmund and a £100million move for him this summer has been mooted.
PSG have also been linked with the 18-year-old.
