Marcus Rashford<\/a> has been supported by a number of former Manchester United<\/a> team-mates after providing yet another assist for Barcelona during their 2-1 win against Real Sociedad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rashford, 27, endured a slow start to life at the Catalan side following his season-long loan move from United in the summer, but he has hit form since the turn of the September international break. Indeed, Rashford has registered either a goal or an assist in each of his last five appearances for Barcelona.<\/p>\n

The England international scored his first and second goal for Barca against Newcastle United in the Champions League<\/a> earlier this month, while he has grabbed one assist in his last four La Liga matches.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Rashford crossed for Jules Kounde to head in Barcelona’s equaliser as Hansi Flick’s side came from behind to beat Sociedad with Robert Lewandowski scoring a second-half winner.<\/p>\n

After the game, Rashford took to Instagram and sent a six-word message to the Barca fans. Alongside four images of him in action against Sociedad, he said: “Huge 3 points! Let’s keep pushing [folded hands emoji].”<\/p>\n

In response to Rashford’s post, Tyrell Malacia, Joshua Zirkzee, Lisandro Martinez, Phil Jones, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Donny van de Beek and David De Gea were among his ex-United teammates to drop a like.<\/p>\n

Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde, meanwhile, replied with two fire emojis.<\/p>\n

Speaking after his side’s seventh win in eight matches this season, Flick said: “We found it very difficult, but we also deserve this win. I really appreciate how my team is playing, how they perform.<\/p>\n

“It doesn’t matter if we change the starting XI a bit, because they all give their all and I love that. I am very proud. It’s incredible. I am very happy for them and for the fans.”<\/p>\n

Rashford is hitting form at the right time for Barca ahead of their blockbuster Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday. They then face Sevilla before the October international break.<\/p>\n

After that, Rashford is expected to team up with the England national team for a game against Wales and a World Cup qualifier away at Latvia. He scored in his last appearance for Thomas Tuchel’s side in the 5-0 win in Serbia.<\/p>\n
