Bruno on target again as Man United rout Leicester 3-0

Manchester United extended their unbeaten run in open play to seven games with a dominant 3-0 victory over Leicester, who continue to struggle at the bottom of the table.

Rasmus Højlund ended his 21-game goal drought by giving United the lead in the 28th minute. Alejandro Garnacho was initially denied an early second-half goal for offside but made up for it with a well-taken shot that Mads Hermansen should have saved.

United have now won all four encounters with Leicester this season, including two under interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has failed to make a significant impact at the King Power. Leicester have lost 13 of their last 14 league matches and now sit nine points adrift of safety.

In an additional blow, Leicester became the first Premier League team to go seven home games without scoring. Bruno Fernandes sealed the win with a stunning strike from the edge of the box, marking his seventh goal in as many games.
