Manchester United schoolboy Marcus Rashford is different class after returning to studies

Brace against Premier League rivals Arsenal followed by A-level studies 

Marcus Rashford went form Manchester United hero to special schoolboy over night

TEENAGE goal machine Marcus Rashford was back down to earth on Monday as he returned to school hours after scoring twice in front of 75,000 fans at Old Trafford.
But the 18-year-old starlet couldn’t resist keeping the Red Devils close to his chest as he arrived for classes proudly wearing his blue Manchester United training coat.
Rashford - who became United’s youngest ever scorer in European football when he bagged two goals against FC Midtjylland in the Europa League last Thursday - turned up for lessons in a modest grey Audi A3.

Then he spent the morning in classes with his pals at the 1,476-pupil Ashton-on-Mersey School, Sale, Gtr Manchester.
Asked by The Sun about his astonishing four days as a first-teamer, the youngster beamed: “I’m over the moon.”
The teenager, who has taken the Premier League by storm after his debut against Arsenal, declined to comment about his studies.
But The Sun understands he already has nine GCSE grades A-C under his belt - and is believed to be taking A-levels this summer.
Last night a source said: “Marcus is a very level-headed guy and he knows his education is really important.

“He could have scored 10 goals against Arsenal and it still wouldn’t have stopped him coming back into school and working hard.
“This time last week he hadn’t even played for the first team - seven days later, he’s got four goals to his name. No one Old Trafford is known as the Theatre of Dreams.
“Marcus only got in the team last Thursday because of a last minute injury to Anthony Martial - none of this was on his radar.
“But no matter how cool you are, it’s got to be a strange feeling to go from man of the match against Arsenal - to back to school on a Monday morning.”

Rashford continues scoring streak with two against Arsenal

Rushford swapped Theatre of Dreams for sixth form Tony Spencer

Rashford is in good company at his school because it’s sponsored by United and counts Darren Fletcher, Danny Welbeck and Jonny Evans among its past pupils.
Rashford is not the first youngster to make an instant impact at Old Trafford and follows in the footsteps of striker Welbeck, who fired in a screamer on his first Premier League appearance for United in 2008.
Few United fans will forget the debut of Italian teenager Federico Macheda who swivelled to score a stunning injury-time winner against Aston Villa back in 2009.
