Bruno Fernandes has defended his decision to cede penalty taking duties to Marcus Rashford in Manchester United's win over Everton. Regular penalty-taker Fernandes opted to give out-of-form Rashford the opportunity to score his first Red Devils goal since the start of September from the spot on Sunday, with the forward duly finding the back of the net in the eventual 3-0 win at Goodison Park. The captain has since come under fire for the decision to allow Rashford to take the penalty from Man Utd legend Roy Keane - criticism Fernandes has now responded to ahead of his side's Champions League clash with Galatasaray.

LOUIS -- A federal appeals court has vacated a stay of execution for a Missouri inmate who is scheduled to be executed on Tuesday for his role in the deaths of two jailers. Michael Tisius, 42, was sentenced to death after being convicted of killing Randolph County jailers Jason Acton and Leon Egley during a failed escape attempt. U.S. District Judge Stephen R.
