MARCUS RASHFORD TO SET NEW RECORD IN ENGLAND
Marcus Rashford is keen on setting a new record for England national team after equaling a 52-year-old record set by Jack Charlton for the most England appearances in a calendar year yesterday. The Manchester United forward has represented the Three Lions 16 times
since the beginning of 2018, drawing level with the World Cup winning
centre-half’s total for 1966. Gareth’s Southgate side have played 17 times this year, also equaling the record set by Sir Alf Ramsey's 1966 world champions. Rashford has been a prominent figure in the England manager’s squad,
scoring four goals and laying on one assist in a hugely successful year
for the national side that has seen them rise to fifth in the FIFA World
Rankings, as well as recapturing the attention and passion of a fanbase
that had become largely disillusioned with the international setup.
