Marcus Rashford takes to social media shortly after Manchester United's incredible late show against Manchester City in the Manchester derby.

Marcus Rashford took to social media on Sunday afternoon shortly after Manchester United's incredible late show against Manchester City in the Manchester derby.

The Red Devils were staring at a third straight Premier League defeat at the Etihad Stadium, with Josko Gvardiol sending Pep Guardiola's side ahead in the 36th minute of the contest.

However, Bruno Fernandes levelled the scores from the penalty spot in the 88th minute, before Amad Diallo, who was the star of the show on the afternoon, won it for the 20-time English champions in the final minute.

Rashford was left out of the Man United squad against Man City, with head coach Ruben Amorim confirming before the match that the Englishman was not injured and had simply been overlooked for the trip to the Etihad Stadium.

The forward took to Instagram after the full-time whistle, posting a picture of his television, with the score 2-1 to Man United, as he watched on at home.

Alejandro Garnacho was another to be left out of the Man United squad on Sunday, with Amorim confirming that the Argentina international had also been omitted.

"Selection. We try to evaluate everything - training, performance, game performance, engagement with the teammates, push the teammates up," the Man United head coach told Sky Sports News.

"Everything is on the line when we analyse and try to choose the players, so it was my selection. Simple. I don't want to send a message (to the dressing room with this). It's simply an evaluation, and they know it.

"The players are really, really smart and so everybody understands my decision and I have to choose. It's just a simple selection. Of course the context is difficult - we have to win games and we have a difficult situation now. But, like I said, I pay attention to everything - the way you eat, the way you put on your clothes to go the game. Everything.

"I make my evaluation and then I have to decide. I have a lot of players to choose (from) and today I did my choice. It's the same all the time and they all understand.

"There's a communication that after the last training is going to the WhatsApp, and then they receive the information. But they are alright, they had training this morning. I was there because it's important for every player... even Jonny Evans because Jonny Evans also (trained) and Toby (Collyer) was there and everything was OK. They trained really well."

Rashford is currently being heavily linked with a move away from Man United, with the England international allegedly available for around £40m during the January transfer window.
