Man Utd striker Rashford up for England shootout duties

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford says he'd be willing to take a spotkick for England in a penalty shootout.

Before Tuesday's last-16 encounter with Colombia, Rashford says he'd be ready if needed for penalties.

Rashford said: “It's something we've been working on for a while now. It's just about getting - not everybody is penalty takers for their clubs. It's more just practice and repetition.

“But whilst we've been out here we've had the end of each session, it's something you might not need but we have to be prepared if it does go to penalties.

“It's more if you feel comfortable taking one, which I do, that's the way you go about it."
