Marcus Rashford will miss Manchester United’s Champions League encounter against Galatasaray next week, as UEFA issued a one-match suspension on Friday.

Rashford was sent off for “rough play” in United’s 4-3 loss to Copenhagen earlier this month after a challenge on Elias Jelert. United manager Erik ten Hag called it “harsh,” but UEFA accepted the decision by referee Donatas Rumsas following a VAR review.

“I think freezing it always makes it look worse.” Such decisions irritate me greatly. “I don’t think the game was ever meant to be this way,” Ten Hag stated at the time. “It has nothing to do with football.”

United’s chances of advancing to the Champions League knockout stage were jeopardized after their defeat in Copenhagen.

United presently sits at the bottom of Group A with three points. If they lose to Galatasaray on Wednesday, the three-time European champion’s chances in the competition are over.

Ten Hag will be hoping that Rasmus Hojlund of Denmark is available after suffering a muscle problem against Luton before the recent international break. He could return for Sunday’s Premier League match against Everton, with a decision on his fitness to be made on Saturday.

Luke Shaw has returned from a thigh injury that has kept the England international sidelined since August. After suffering a knock while playing for Cameroon, goalkeeper Andre Onana is available. Christian Eriksen is out with a knee injury, and Jonny Evans is out with a thigh injury.

Mason Mount, according to Ten Hag, has a “issue” that needs to be addressed before the Everton game.
