United took an early lead through Mason Greenwood’s close-range finish in the 19th minute. However, Leicester refused to wilt and equalised just before half-time when Youri Tielemans curled a beautiful free-kick into the top corner. The second half was even more dramatic. United regained the lead through Marcus Rashford’s penalty in the 56th minute, but Leicester hit back with a stunning equaliser from James Maddison just seven minutes later. With the game seemingly destined for a draw, Leicester struck twice more in the final ten minutes. First, Jamie Vardy gave the Foxes the lead with a clinical finish, and then Harvey Barnes sealed the victory with a spectacular effort from outside the area. The result was a major upset, as Leicester had not beaten United at Old Trafford since 1998. It also ended United’s six-game unbeaten run and dealt a significant blow to their title hopes. For Leicester, the victory was a testament to their resilience and attacking prowess. Tielemans and Maddison were excellent in midfield, while Vardy and Barnes were a constant threat to the United defence. Brendan Rodgers, the Leicester manager, hailed his team’s performance as “one of the best I’ve seen.” “To come back from two goals down against a top side like Manchester United shows the character of this group,” he said. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the United manager, admitted that his team had been “outfought and outplayed” by Leicester. “We didn’t deserve to win,” he said. “We need to improve our mentality and our quality.” The victory moved Leicester up to second place in the Premier League table, while United slipped to sixth.
