Man Utd star Marcus Rashford smashes BALL at reporter in hilarious training ground moment
MARCUS RASHFORD had his shooting boots on during Manchester United training this afternoon.
Manchester United train for Champions League Juventus clash
The forward was preparing for the Champions League clash with Juventus tomorrow night.
And he showed off his skills when he struck the ball towards Sky Sports reporter Vinny O'Connor from across the pitch - and hit him.
The Manchester United ace fired the ball high into the air and O’Connor was forced to move off camera after being hit in the back.
Rashford can then be seen laughing with Ashley Young and his team-mates as they gear up for tomorrow’s game.
United fans will be delighted with Rashord’s accuracy after he scored the late winner against Bournemouth on Saturday to seal three points.
It came after he missed a sitter earlier on in the game as United battled back from a goal down.
“Can't be Lukaku. It was on target,” one United fan wrote.
Another said: “That was a good hit.”
Absolutely pinpoint! ������

United will jet out to Turin later today ahead of the Champions League showdown.
Juan Mata has described the week as one of the most difficult of the season as they follow Juve with Manchester City on Sunday.
“Back-to-back 2-1 wins have given us the confidence we need to face up to one of the most difficult weeks of the season,” he wrote in his blog.
“To visit both Juventus and Manchester City in the space of four days is a big challenge that the fixture list has put in front of us, and we are heading towards it with the utmost motivation.”
While Matteo Darmian has revealed just why Juventus will be so tough to beat.
“I think Juventus are a very big club, one of the biggest clubs in the world,“ he told MUTV.
"For sure, they are the biggest club in Italy and they have won the last seven Serie A (titles) so everyone wants to beat them. They are a very good team and it will be a difficult game.“
“They have good organisation and are a compact team so it’s difficult to score against them.
”So we have to be focused and try to score and win the game.“
