Marcus Rashford came off the bench to score two late goals as Manchester United beat Charlton Athletic to reach the Carabao Cup semi-finals.
The visitors, 12th in League One, had defended well in the opening exchanges but Antony put the home side in front on 21 minutes when Diogo Dalot’s run off the ball opened up the Charlton defence.
He found Brazilian Antony, who had too much space and curled high into the top-left corner from outside of the box.
In-form forward Rashford, on as a 60th-minute substitute, guaranteed the result with fine finishes in the 90th and 94th minutes, securing his side’s passage into the last four.
