Man Utd matchwinner Rashford: Pogba doing great things for team

Manchester United matchwinner Marcus Rashford hailed the form of Paul Pogba after victory over Leicester City.

Pogba provided the assist as Rashford scored his eighth goal in 13 outings to earn the victory at the King Power Stadium.

"I think it was hugely important [to win]. We just keep trying to improve ourselves," Rashford told Sky Sports.

"The last result [2-2 against Burnley] wasn't what we wanted so had to improve and we did that today. Different type of game, different challenges, and it was very difficult, so to get the win was very good."

Rashford added: "Time and time again, he [Paul Pogba] provides opportunities for the team and that's what we want from him. If we can get him free then he can make these passes all day long, he'll find you."
