Much like everyone else in world football, was full of praise for after another stellar performance from the 20-year-old on Tuesday night.

Both men starred as beat 3-1 at Wembley, with Harry Kane scoring either side of an excellent Rashford goal.

Bellingham didn’t get on the score sheet but he was hugely influential, winning the penalty which Kane converted for his first and setting up Rashford for his brilliant strike.

Real Madrid’s summer signing from Borussia Dortmund has been in startling form all season and Rashford hopes he can keep it up for as long as possible in an England shirt, with the Three Lions securing qualification for Euro 2024 with the win over Italy.

‘He’s an unbelievable player, not just his qualities, but he’s full of energy as well, he’s everywhere on the pitch. He’s defending, he’s attacking,’ said the Manchester United forward.

‘A joy to play with. We hope that he can continue the form that he’s been in.

‘He didn’t score today but you can see his huge influence that he has, going forward especially.

‘We hope that continues because it’s a massive boost for the team.’

Rashford has not been in good form for his club but was impressive at Wembley and hopes that it will see him find his best more often.

‘I feel like I am ready to kick on,’ he said. ‘It is about winning as many games as possible for me, whether you start or are on the bench. When it is your moment you have to take it.’
