WAYWARD PASS FROM MAZRAOUI

United have a promising move but the killer ball from Mazraoui is seriously lacking. Ferndandes than has a deflected effort which goalkeeper Hermansen gathers.

A cynical challenge by the United midfielder who knew what he was doing as he barged Farawu causing him to tumble to the floor.

Leicester are looking to finish this half strongly but have an uphill battle in this season half.

The home side are in a dominant frame of mind as they continue to whip balls into the Leicester box.

Van Nistelrooy could not have asked for a better half, despite some lapses of concentration at the back.

GOAL! MANCHESTER UNITED 2 (KRISTIANSEN) LEICESTER CITY 0

It’s a second goal of the half for Fernandes. Mazraoui with an inviting ball which Fernandes stoops for before the ball comes of the knee of Kristiansen and into the net.

Buonanotte went down under pressure while trying to connect with an Ayew ball through on goal.

Moments later Soumare was disposed by Ugarte just as he was about to shoot at goal.

The Leicester wide man is given space on the edge of the box so fires at goal. His effort is never going to trouble Onana who watches it straight into his gloves.

United are looking to create a second goal and Amad is in a good position to find Rashford who has made a run.

However, a tired looking pass allows Leicester to intercept.
