Manchester United head coach Rúben Amorim has provided his response to the maiden goal scored by the on-loan Marcus Rashford for La Liga giants Barcelona.

Frontman Rashford is for his part of course fresh off announcing himself in Blaugrana colours on Thursday.

Afforded a starting berth in Barcelona's Champions League opener against Newcastle United, the Englishman proved himself the star of the show.

After first opening the scoring courtesy of a fine header, Rashford followed up with a stunning strike from range to guide his new club to a 2-1 victory.

Such endeavours have since seen the oft-criticised attacker lavished in widespread praise across the world of football.

And as alluded to above, on Saturday, the latest high-profile individual to be drawn on Rashford's Man of the Match performance was Rúben Amorim.

After opening the door to the 27-year-old's departure over the summer, Manchester United's headmaster made use of a question surrounding Rashford to highlight the accompanying goalscoring exploits of Rasmus Højlund at Napoli:

"Rasmus Højlund also scored, I am happy for Rasmus also! It is the same thing with him guys. You are so tough on Rasmus but he scored also, so let's notice that."
