Marcus Rashford hits hat-trick on England Under-21 debut

Marcus Rashford hits a hat-trick as England Under-21s record a 5-1 victory over Norway's Under-21 team on Tuesday night.

Debutant Marcus Rashford scored a hat-trick as England Under-21s recorded a 6-1 victory over Norway's Under-21 team on Tuesday night.

Rashford, who scored on his first appearance for the senior England team in addition to his Manchester United debut, hit his first in the 29th minute, before netting twice more in the second half - the last of which came from the spot.

Chelsea trio Nathaniel Chalobah, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Lewis Baker were also on the scoresheet for the home team, while Ghayas Zahid had Norway's consolation in the Euro 2017 Under-21 Championship qualification match.

Gareth Southgate's side have now collected 14 points from their six qualification fixtures and sit top of Group 9 - two points clear of Switzerland Under-21s.
