Roy Keane criticises Manchester United player Marcus Rashford over body language
Roy Keane has criticised Marcus Rashford after England’s 2-1 victory over Belgium on Sunday.
Rashford scored England’s equaliser during a solid performance for his country, but Keane had harsh words for both Rashford and Harry Maguire in the wake of the game.
Keane questioned Rashford’s body language during the first-half, believing he could have done more as Belgium dominated the opening 45 minutes.
“Rashford in the first-half was going through the motions,” Keane said on ITV. “‘I just want to make a point, Rashford, his body language in the first half, he needs to do better.
“And then he started doing what he should be doing, running at people, getting forward, doing things quickly. Gareth Southgate should have said something at half-time, cut out this nonsense, kind of standing on the ball.”
