MARCUS Rashford maintained his record of scoring in every game since the end of the World Cup with two late goals as Manchester United overcame Charlton Athletic 3-0 to reach the semi-finals of the EFL Cup.
Substitute Rashford scored twice to complete United's win, after Antony broke the deadlock against League One side Charlton in the first half at Old Trafford earlier this morning.
Charlton -- the only non-Premier League club to reach the quarter-finals -- tried hard to stay in the game, but a lack of quality presented them with problems late in the game.
Erik ten Hag's side now need just three more games to end a six-year trophyless drought after reaching the EFL Cup semi-finals for the third time in four seasons.
