Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba had a discussion before the Frenchman took the spot kick in Manchester United\u2019s 1-1 draw with Wolves on Monday night.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old who scored a penalty against Chelsea last week, wanted to take the spot kick against Wolves but at same time, didn\u2019t want to offend Pogba.<\/p>\n

According to Mirror, Rashford had asked Pogba if he wanted to take the kick, and the former Juventus star said \u2018yes\u2019.<\/p>\n

Then Rashford patted the Frenchman on the back, picked the ball and gave it to him.<\/p>\n

United could have secured victory at Molyneux but Pogba missed the penalty.<\/p>\n

The World Cup winner saw his spot kick saved by Wolves stopper Rui Patricio as United played out a 1-1 draw at Molyneux.<\/p>\n

It was the second penalty awarded to the Red Devils this season.<\/p>\n

Pogba had gone down under a foul from Connor Coady in the box, prompting referee Jonathan Moss to point to the spot.<\/p>\n

Despite the Frenchman\u2019s powerful effort though, Patricio was equal to it, forcing a share of the spoils between the two sides.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
