"Can we have your week's wages?" - Newport Fans Mock Rashford's Absence in FA Cup Clash

Newport supporters take aim at Marcus Rashford for missing FA Cup match against Manchester United

Newport County fans took a swipe at Marcus Rashford after the Manchester United star was absent from Sunday's FA Cup encounter in Wales. Despite Rashford's absence, Manchester United, led by Erik ten Hag, secured a comfortable 4-2 victory against Newport County.

The FA Cup clash saw Manchester United's dominance with goals from Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, Antony, and Rasmus Hojlund, sealing the win for the Red Devils. However, the absence of Rashford became a talking point among Newport supporters.

Reports surfaced suggesting Rashford's absence was due to illness, despite speculation linking him to a nightclub outing in Belfast on Thursday preceding the match. 

Newport fans seized the opportunity to mock the star's absence, with one banner boldly asking, "Rashford, can we have your week's wages?"
