Marcus Rashford scored twice to help Manchester United defeat Leicester City 3-0 in the Premier League on Sunday, keeping up his impressive goal-scoring streak. At Old Trafford, United can credit goalkeeper David De Gea for keeping the score from being two early on as Leicester dominated the attack. On the eighth minute, the Spanish goalkeeper stretched out to deny the opposing winger Harvey Barnes. Shortly after, he made an even greater save by diving to stop a Kelechi Iheanacho header.

On the quarter-hour mark, the home team seized the lead thanks to a goal from in-form attacker Marcus Rashford, who scored against Danny Ward for his sixth straight goal in all competitions. With a one-goal advantage at the halftime, United drew away from Leicester in the second half. First, Rashford increased his team’s lead on 56 minutes with a composed finish. After a VAR review, the goal that had initially been disallowed by the assistant referee’s offside flag was reinstated.

The third United goal was then confidently put in by winger Jadon Sancho after a wonderful one-two with Bruno Fernandes as he entered the Leicester box. With the victory, United is now only three points behind second-placed Manchester City. Nevertheless, Erik ten Hag’s team must now focus on the Carabao Cup, where they will play Newcastle United in the championship game on Sunday at Wembley.

“We’re close, but both teams in front of us are good teams and playing good football. We have to just focus on ourselves, do as well as we can and keep picking up points,” Rashford told Sky Sports. With a second-leg Europa League game against Barcelona and a cup final over Newcaslte coming up, United fans will be hoping Rashford’s prolific run continues.

“It’s still early in the season, we’re fighting for a lot of different things,” Rashford said. “We have another big game in the week [against Barcelona] to hopefully go through to the next round of the Europa League and then a massive game for us [in the cup final],” he added.
