Carragher hopes story of Man Utd youngster Rashford continues at Euro2016

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher is hoping for Manchester United youngster Marcus Rashford's fairy tale story to continue at Euro2016.

The 18-year-old, who was an unknown in the football world before making his debut for United in February, scored on his England debut last week.

Rashford's performances for club and country this year have earned him a spot in Roy Hodgson's final 23-man squad for the upcoming tournament in France and Carragher hopes he can continue on in the same vein of form.

Carragher writes for Daily Mail: "Yes, he had to go.

"His pace will worry any defender in world football. It is completely different from the Theo Walcott choice in the squad I was in, in 2006.

"Rashford has been one of the stories of 2016 and hopefully it'll continue."
