Manchester United delivered a commanding performance at Old Trafford, securing a convincing 3-0 victory over Leicester City, with Bruno Fernandes and Alejadro Garnacho dominating the scoreline.

The Red Devils took control early in the match when Fernandes opened the scoring in the 17th minute, capitalizing on excellent work from Amad Diallo, who continued his recent fine form with another strong display. The lead was doubled before halftime through an unfortunate own goal from Victor Kristiansen in the 38th minute, compounding a difficult evening for the Foxes.

Marcus Rashford was particularly impressive before his 57th-minute substitution for Alejandro Garnacho, who made an immediate impact, eventually scoring United’s third goal in the 82nd minute from a Fernandes assist to seal the victory.

United’s midfield control was evident through the solid performances of Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte, who dominated the central areas. The defense, anchored by Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui, remained intact throughout.

Leicester, despite having Harry Winks put in a commendable performance, struggled to create meaningful opportunities, managing just six attempts on goal compared to United’s 13. Jordan Ayew showed glimpses of quality, but the Foxes’ attack was largely contained by United’s organized defense.

The match saw several tactical adjustments, with both managers using their benches effectively. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s United maintained their shape and intensity even after multiple changes, while Steve Cooper’s Leicester struggled to find answers to United’s fluid attacking play.

Andre Onana had a relatively quiet evening in the United goal but maintained concentration when needed, making five crucial saves to secure his clean sheet with a solid.

This victory strengthens United’s position in the league with 15 points in 11 games played while Leicester City remained at 15th position with10 points in from 11 matches played.
