Rashford 'unstoppable' as Wembley beckons

He had said it before earlier in January, and on Wednesday he said it again after Rashford scored a dazzling solo goal as United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final to virtually book a place at Wembley in February.

New United loan signing Wout Weghorst scored his first goal for the club just before half-time to put the visitors in total control and Bruno Fernandes made it 3-0 late on.
