Published on August 26, 2019, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made it clear that Marcus Rashford will continue to take penalties for the team, despite missing against Crystal Palace.

According to Solskjaer, Rashford's confidence in taking penalties remains unchanged, and the manager believes the 21-year-old will 'step up again' in future matches.

Speaking to the media, Solskjaer drew parallels with his own experience of missing a penalty for Norway, stating that when two players are confident and good penalty takers, the most confident one should take the shot.
