What Wolves did before Man United game completely backfired as Marcus Rashford took just five minutes to score

Wolves poked fun at Marcus Rashford before kick-off as they played not one but two songs referencing his visit to a Belfast nightclub.

Rashford was dropped from the Man United squad for their FA Cup tie against Newport County last weekend.

The 26-year-old was denied a spot in Erik ten Hag's team after he was spotted partying in Northern Ireland before calling in sick to training.

But he returned to the starting XI against Wolves on Thursday and repaid his manager's faith by opening the scoring.

The forward not only silenced his critics but also Wolves, who taunted the player prior to the game.

The club played a cover version of Tequila of Terrorvision followed by Tequila by The Champs inside Molineux in an apparent dig at Rashford.

Wolves' choice of music, however, backfired as the Red Devils star took just five minutes to get on the score-sheet as he produced a side-footed finish.

On Monday, Man United released a statement, where the club said they have dealt with an 'internal disciplinary matter' with Rashford.

The statement read: "Marcus has taken responsibility for his actions. This has been dealt with as an internal disciplinary matter, which is now closed."

Rashford was also involved in his side's second goal as he played in Luke Shaw, who set up Rasmus Hojlund who scored from close range.
