Man Utd matchwinner Rashford admits playing injured

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford admits he played injured for victory over Manchester City.

Rashford scored the winner for the 2-1 triumph.

He later said, "A little knock [in the first half]. In games like this you have to try to push through. Thankfully I did that.

"Scoring a goal and winning the game, that's always the aim. This game is a little special.

"It's a change of dynamics. I've said many times but options off the bench even when we've had injures, players out of position, everyone is putting a shift in.

"Anything is possible. We're very pleased to come back and win."
