Marcus Rashford wasted no time to leave his stamp in an Aston Villa shirt – so that Tottenham's Kevin Danso stays in a bloody pile.
The Leenlee of Manchester United came from the bank during Villas Fa Cup Fourth Round Tie with Spurs on Sunday.
Rashford, 27, replaced Donyell Malen just after the hour with the hosts leading 2-0.
The striker of England received a hero through the home support after participation of United until the end of the season.
The 27-year-old looked full of energy when he tried to win a header against Danso, just a few seconds after he entered the field.
Danso came in second place and seemed to catch a casual elbow from Rashford.
The challenge resulted in a long treatment for the £ 21 million Austrian, who had blood that ran out of a wound on his forehead.
A fan on X Brld: “This Rashford Redemption, he is here for blood! Literally. Up the villa.”
Another said, “Won a header and then already hit Danso, I love him.”
Rashford was frozen in Man United by new boss Ruben Amorim.
The attacker had indicated in December that he was ready for a “new challenge” away from Old Trafford.
After confirming his relocation last week, Rashford issued a short explanation in which Red Devils fans thanked.
He wrote: “I want to thank Manchester United and Aston Villa for the fact that this loan has made a deal happened.
“I was lucky that a few clubs approached me, but Aston Villa was an easy decision.
“I really admire the way Aston Villa played this season, and the ambitions of the managers.
“I just want to play football and I am excited to start.
“I wish everyone at Manchester United the very best for the rest of the season.”
Villa was linked to a late Mathys Tel -target in the Midlands.
But the side of Unai Emery held up to book their place in the fifth round for the first time in a decade.
And Spurs now has to win the Europa League if they want to end their long trophy -dried.
