Marcus Rashford has taken to social media to help find a fan he kissed to give him his Manchester United shirt.
The England international was on the scoresheet again in a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace at Old Trafford – his 19th of the season in all competitions.

Rashford was once again on the scoresheet for United
And the Red Devils ended up needing it after Casemiro’s wild red card saw the Eagles win one back by Jeffrey Schlupp to halve the deficit after Bruno Fernandes netted an early penalty.
But United held on for victory and propelled Newcastle into third place after the Magpies’ 1-1 draw with West Ham.
As for goal machine Rashford, he jumped into the crowd after his strike against Palace, with the 25-year-old embracing a cheering young fan.
Rashford has since taken to social media to try to identify the supporter in order to give him a signed shirt.
He tweeted“Whoever this guy is that I hug, I would like to give him my shirt.
“Tag him in the picture I have just so I can sign it and send it to him.”
Naturally, the responses were full of fans tagging each other, but if Rashford ever found his man, it would undoubtedly make their day.
And it continues the good vibes at Old Trafford, where they have not lost since September 8 in a Europa League match against Real Sociedad.
Rashford added another tweet, writing, “Without the fans cheering us on today, this win is not possible. We appreciate each of you!
United have back-to-back clashes against Leeds now after the previous match was postponed due to the Queen’s death.
Rashford has been in inspired form since the World Cup
The first will be played at the Theater of Dreams on Wednesday night in what is expected to be a heated battle between two storied teams before meeting at Elland Road on Sunday afternoon.
Then there’s a huge game against Barcelona in the Europa League Round of 16, while they also face Newcastle in the Carabao Cup final later this month.
That makes February a crucial time for the Red Devils and Ten Hag who could shape their season, but they hit perfect form at the right time.
