In the 38th minute of today’s UEFA Nations League tie between England and Belgium, the Three Lions were gifted the opportunity to equalise after Thomas Meunier conceded a penalty.
Meunier pulled back Jordan Henderson as a corner was being floated in, with the Liverpool man going to ground and winning a penalty for Gareth Southgate’s men.
Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford stepped up to the spot, the ace sent Simon Mignolet the wrong way with an ice-cold penalty after a lengthy stutter-step run up.
GOAL FOR ENGLAND! ???????
A good week gets even better for Marcus Rashford as he emphatically slots England's penalty.

England have taken advantage of a big blunder from Meunier to draw level, but need to be much better in the second-half, they’ve created no clear-cut chances.
