Two minutes and 15 seconds. That is all it
took for Marcus Rashford to score and, with
it, became the youngest ever player to do so
for England on his international debut –
beating Tommy Lawton’s 77-year record.
The kid is just 18 years and 208 days old. He
only made his first-team debut 92 days
before this match.
It is an amazing story in an amazing season.
Roy Hodgson had bought into the parallels
between Rashford and Wayne Rooney, who
had burst on the scene with a brilliant
performance for his country the last time
England played at the Stadium of Light 13
years ago, and here another star was born.
