The pair of forwards went against each other in a standing long jump test and there was a clear winner.
Elanga's first effort resulted in a 'disqualification' as he slipped backwards after landing his jump.
But he produced a monstrous jump in his second effort, stunning Rashford and Tyrell Malacia, who was watching on from the side.

Elanga, 21, played 26 games in all competitions last season following a breakout campaign in the 2021/22 term, where he scored three goals.
But he has been the subject of intense transfer speculation this summer, with a move away from Old Trafford mooted.
Nottingham Forest and Everton have expressed an interest in signing Elanga, whose future appears destined to lie away from Man United.
