– Marcus Rashford scored twice to continue his hot streak and help Manchester United overcome Leicester in the Premier League.
– Rashford is in the form of his career and is leading United’s resurgence, taking his tally to 24 for the season with goals in each half at Old Trafford.

– Substitute Jadon Sancho finished off a fine team move to seal all three points for Erik ten Hag’s side, but it could have been a very different story.
– Leicester created the better chances when it was goalless and their failure to find a way past David de Gea proved extremely costly.
– The Spaniard made a stunning reflex save to deny Harvey Barnes from close range and kept out Kelechi Iheanacho’s diving header with another superb stop.
– Defeat ended Leicester’s three-game unbeaten run and an inconsistent season sees them remain in 14th place in the table.
A comprehensive win to go within five points of the league leaders 💪#MUNLEI pic.twitter.com/KzSUfBJN3E
