Marcus Rashford's wonder strike

73rd minute with the game tied at 1-1, Marcus Rashford calmly steps up to take the free-kick. He firmly takes his position and strikes the ball into the top-left corner of the goal from 30-yards out. He got the ball above the wall with enough dip in it to crash into the net. Chelsea goalkeeper Willy Caballero had no chance of getting near the ball. And just like that, Manchester United were 2-1 up in the game and Chelsea looking at a possible elimination from the Carabao Cup.
