Marcus Rashford apologized for getting sent off in Manchester United’s 2-0 win over Burnley.
The Englishman had come as a substitute in the second half but saw red for headbutting ex-United defender Phil Bardsley.
The Red Devils, however, held on for an important win and the English striker took to Twitter to apologize to the fans.
Emotions got the better of me, I shouldn’t of reacted like that. Sorry to everyone at the club and all the fans #MUFC pic.twitter.com/6UWnxd4yYo

Rashford will be suspended for our upcoming games after the international break and it will be a bit of a blow for the side, as we must catch up to the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea.
The performance against Burnley was decent but we should have scored more than the brace from Romelu Lukaku.
Rashford’s red certainly took a bit of the sheen out of our win but a number of United fans came out and tweeted their support for the youngster.
No need to apologies Marcus, you will learn from this mistake. Bardsley should have been sent off too. The ref was shocking today.

Shouldn’t have been sent off. Awful play acting from a 33 year old.
