It wasn’t all smooth sailing for the Manchester team as the hosts from Betis created plenty of chances in fron of De Gea’s goal, with Joaqin’s effort finding the outside of the post.

Once the goal fell, however, the Red Devils seemed in cruise control as Sabitzer, Sancho and Weghorst all had decent opportunities to double the lead.

With his goal, Rashford continues his fantastic run of form, having scored 27 in all competitions, 19 of which had come after the World cup. The English star remains top goalscorer in Europa League with 6.

Manchester United next fixture is a FA cup quarter-final against Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday.
