Adam Lallana's late equaliser saved a point for Liverpool, as they drew 1-1 at Manchester United on Monday (NZ time).
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's United headed into this match as underdogs against Jurgen Klopp's rampant side - little wonder given the visitors had won their last 17 league matches and the Red Devils were just a point off the relegation zone.
Rashford scored after turning home a superb low cross from Dan James after the speedy Welshman had broken down the right flank.
The goal was subject to a video review and allowed to stand despite Liverpool claims that Victor Lindelof had fouled Divock Origi at the start of the move.
Liverpool thought they had got level, two minutes before the interval, when Sadio Mane outfought Lindelof and poked home but the VAR review showed the Senegalese forward had handled the ball.
But Juergen Klopp's side, who had struggled to find openings, finally broke through in the 85th minute when Lallana slotted home Andy Robertson's low cross.
United are now unbeaten in their last seven home games against Liverpool, whose lead over second-placed Manchester City is cut to six points.
