Yes. But he’s offside and in possession of the ball.

Quote the bit where possession is mentioned in the rule

If Rashford was not there in an offside position that chance would never have come about.

He wasn't just there but he also prevented City players from playing the ball, he was involved with play and he definitely influenced the outcome of the move.

Disgraceful refereeing and officiating, whether he touched the ball was irrelevant, he ran with it and shielded it for about 10 meters.

It will be interesting to see how many ex officials and players and other pundits stand by it.

Without Rushford being there, that pass wouldn't have been made

Another fucking rag lurking.

Prick!

Players like Mike Doyle, Franny Lee, Mike Summerbee, Denis Law, and Colin Bell would have not recognised that fiasco of a game as a Manchester derby. It just shows how pathetic the contemporary game has become now.

Could this be the beginning of the end!

I’ve just watched the replay of their first goal and (I know this is unpopular view) as far as I am concerned there was nothing wrong with. Rashford didn’t ”interfer”. The two City defenders closest to the ball didnt stop or noticeably slow down as others on here have suggested.

It’s unpopular because it’s an incorrect understanding of the rules.
