Roy Keane praised Marcus Rashford for his performance in a losing cause against Manchester City for Aston Villa Tuesday evening.
Rashford equalized for the side of Uai Emery on the spot, struck the post and had many other chances when he delivered one of his best screens for his loan club, which conceded late to lose 2-1.
Matheus Nunes proposed the winner, just when he seemed that Rashford and Co had won a precious point in their pursuit for a top five.
And in the Sky Sports Studio, the legend of Man United Keane was full of praise for the 27 -year -old striker.
The Irishman said: “He was a threat tonight, he had a great chance in the second half, but when there is grass in front of him, he is as good as any player.
“Ask the defenders, it’s a nightmare. It is almost impossible to stop.

The pace of Rashford in behind caused constant problems for the local team at Etihad
Keane’s point on the fact that Rashford can make seams in space is relevant, English often seeming less effective against a low block.
But he has resumed his form far from Man United, who has struggled to score goals in recent weeks themselves.
So far he has four goals and six assists in all competitions for the Emery team and has been favored compared to Ollie Watkins in the last games.
Villa has the possibility of signing Rashford permanently for 40 million pounds sterling this summer, but it is still undecided by the trigger of the clause.
The club is now seventh, two points on fifth but after playing one more game.
Keane continued: “The problem for Villa is that they lack matches and the difference in goals is a problem. They are well organized, but they abandon late goals and it will be expensive.
“There will be one or two twists and turns, but where you are in a potion to draw, do not lose, keep the momentum and the city near you.
“You saw City’s reaction, they know how much it was a great moment at the last kick of the game.
