EPL: Manchester United defeat Leicester City
Manchester United defeated struggling Leicester City 1-0 on Thursday night to win their third consecutive game in the new English Premier League season.
Leicester have started the season without a victory so far. Still, they managed to keep Manchester United at bay for most of the first half before succumbing to a quick counter-attack that saw Jadon Sancho round Ward in goal to slot in for the game’s only goal.
Leicester tried to find an equaliser but could barely muster any reasonable attempts on goal until James Maddison pulled off a great save from David de Gea off a free kick.
Cristiano Ronaldo came into the game with 20 minutes to go, which opened up Leicester even more, but the Red Devils could not add to the tally.
