MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho responded in style to cruel taunts from Leeds fans as Manchester United rallied to salvage a 2-2 draw in the Premier League. Both players scored in a rousing second-half comeback after facing chants of “You let your country down” in reference to the United forwards missing penalties in England’s Euro 2020 final shootout defeat. But by the end of the game Rashford had scored his 20th goal of the season to start United’s comeback and Sancho had equalized to mark his return to the team. Fulham booked its place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 3-2 win in its replay with Sunderland.
