Rio Ferdinand has hailed Marcus Rashford after he confidently dispatched the penalty that saw Manchester United reach the Champions League quarter-finals at the expense of Paris Saint-Germain.
The 21-year-old slammed the ball home from 12 yards after United were gifted a spot kick following a contentious decision by VAR to penalise PSG defender Presnel Kimpembe for handball in stoppage time.
Rashford picked the ball up and fired his effort past Gianluigi Buffon to send United through to the next round on away goals in the French capital.
