Manchester United got over the line against Everton in the Premier League on Saturday. It was a game with many chances for Man United, but Jordan Pickford pulled off some astonishing saves. The game finished 2-0 and has given ten Hag’s team a fantastic chance of qualifying for the Champions League.
Despite the great result, Man United staff and fans were concerned to see top scorer Rashford limp off with a groin injury. Rashford was seen pulling up towards the end of the game.
The forward has rediscovered his best form under ten Hag, especially after the World Cup.

With the big quarter-final clash on Thursday at Old Trafford, ten Hag is set to rest Rashford to avoid further aggravating his injury. After undergoing a scan on his groin, the general feel around the injury is that he needs time to recover.
Rashford Injury Update: Who Will Take His Place?
With Rashford looking likely to miss out on the Sevilla game in the Europa League. The big question is who will take his place in the starting line-up.
Antony Martial came off the bench, scoring via an assist from Rashford. Ten Hag may be tempted to give Martial a start in place of Rashford, as he looks to rebuild his confidence.
Another option is to bring back in Wout Weghorst. The Dutchmen has been the topic of debate around Old Trafford over the past couple of weeks. Many believe he hasn’t got enough to run the line for a club like United. However, ten Hag has backed the Burnley loanee, arguing he does a crucial job for the team.
Whoever comes into replace Rashford will have the tough choice of replacing 28 goals in all competitions.
