Man United loan watch: Marcus Rashford decisive, Antony sent off, Ethan Williams shines
Several Manchester United loanees were in action over the last weekend. Read on as we take a look at their performances.
Marcus Rashford
The England international starred as Aston Villa dug deep to beat Chelsea 2-1 at Villa Park on Saturday.
He set up fellow January signing Marco Asensio for both his goals. It marked the first time he provided two assists in a league game since 2020/2021.
Jadon Sancho
The 24-year-old came on as a substitute during Chelsea’s loss to Villa, replacing French striker Christopher Nkunku in the 76th minute.
Sancho has not scored a goal for the Blues since the turn of the year.
Antony
The Brazilian was a hero and villain for Real Betis in their 2-1 win away at Getafe on Sunday evening.
He assisted Isco with Betis’ first goal before he was sent off during stoppage time. Antony has scored two goals and two assists in his last three La Liga appearances.
Jack Kingdon
The young centre-back made his second appearance for National League club Rochdale as they lost 4-0 at home to Barnet on Saturday.
He replaced Kyron Gordon in the 78th minute of the clash. He has yet to start a game for Rochdale.
Ethan Williams
The 19-year-old left-winger continued his impressive form for Cheltenham Town, scoring the first goal for the club in their 3-0 win over Newport County.
Joe Hugill
The 21-year-old striker came off the bench for League Two side Carlisle United’s goalless draw with Gillingham.
He has not started the last two games and has netted once in eight outings for the Cumbrians.
Ethan Ennis
The young English forward featured as a substitute as Doncaster Rovers recorded a 2-1 victory away at Accrington Stanley.
He has registered one assist in six appearances for the League Two promotion-chasers.
Sonny Aljofree
He was brought off in the 34th minute during Accrington’s 2-1 loss to Doncaster. The reason for his early substitution was attributed to a change in formation.
Radek Vitek
The young shot-stopper could not prevent BW Linz from losing 2-1 to Austrian Bundesliga table-toppers Sturm Graz yesterday.
He has yet to miss a league game that he has been named in the matchday squad.
Sam Mather
The 20-year-old forward made his debut for League Two side Tranmere Rovers during their 2-1 loss to Notts County on Saturday.
He replaced Jake Garrett three minutes before the end of the game.
