Leicester City’s woes intensified in the 38th minute when Victor Kristiansen unintentionally deflected the ball into his own net, doubling United’s advantage.

This own goal capped off a frustrating first half for the Foxes.

Manchester United maintained their momentum in the second half, with Alejandro Garnacho sealing the victory in the 82nd minute.
