The United teenager, a second-half replacement for Juan Mata, turned home Wayne Rooney's slide-rule pass for the only goal of the game in the second minute of time added on to finally break Hull's brave resistance and send the newly-promoted club to their first defeat of the season.
Such was Hull's tenacity and discipline, especially on the edge of their penalty area, United found chances hard to come by in the first half.
But it was Rashford who eventually broke the deadlock, sending players and United fans alike into a frenzy.
It was a tough pill to swallow for Hull, who would have deserved a point for their sheer endeavour had they managed to hold on, but United's patience was finally rewarded and it is they who join Chelsea at the top of the table.
So how did the two teams fare?
