Video: 1 assist, 1 key pass: United loanee tricky winger shows off his creative best in 2-2 draw

Manchester United had four players in loan action last night. To find out where all of Manchester United’s loanees are plying their trade this season, click here. Ethan Ennis The Manchester United winger played the entire 90 minutes of Fleetwood Town’s 2-2 draw with Cheltenham. Ennis grabbed an assist in the game when he went on a mazy run in the Cheltenham half. After beating a couple of players, he laid the ball off to Mark Helm, who fired in an unstoppable effort from range. He also had one key pass in the match and completed three of his 12 cross attempts on the night. The young winger also had one shot on goal and completed one of his four dribble attempts. Ennis was unusually poor defensively, however, winning just one of his 10 duels.

There was little he could do about the Foxes’ opener from close range, but he will be disappointed with the second strike that he conceded. A shot from Abdul Fatawu squirmed under the goalkeeper and found its way into the back of the net when he really should have stopped it. He made one high claim and completed 88% of his passing attempts. Vitek also made four clearances in the match. Marcus Rashford The Englishman came on for the final 20 minutes of Barcelona’s 1-1 draw with Newcastle United in the Champions League. He had one shot and completed just one of his cross attempts. Rashford also failed to win any duels or produce any key passes in a quiet outing off the bench. Toby Collyer The Manchester United man played the final eight minutes of Hull City’s 2-1 away win over Wrexham.
