Manchester United defender Luke Shaw says he ‘loved it’ when Marcus Rashford’s injury-time goal sealed a 1-0 victory over Hull City at the KCOM Stadium.

An injury-time goal from young striker Marcus Rashford was enough to secure all three points for United and also secure their third straight victory in the Premier League.

The 21-year-old has expressed his excitement and emotions, declaring he has never previously experienced such a high during a match before.

‘I loved it,’ Shaw told the Manchester United website.

‘I think, emotion-wise, that was the best I’ve felt ever on a pitch. I’m just so happy that we could get the three points, not just for us but for the fans. They were unbelievable today.’

Shaw admits that he loved the thrill of the late victory and he has stated that he hopes there is more to come.

‘It was an unreal feeling and even a few of the lads in there [the dressing room] said it was like taking them back to the old days when they sometimes used to get those smash and grab wins,’ he added.

‘I loved it and hopefully, there’s more to come.’

Manchester United will next go head-to-head with Manchester City in a Manchester derby at Old Trafford on September 10.

Kick-off has been set for 13:30.
