LEICESTER:
Manchester United’s Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho ended goal droughts and Bruno Fernandes scored again to earn a 3-0 win at struggling Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

Looking to win back-to-back matches in all competitions for the first time since late January, United went ahead in the 28th minute through Dane Hojlund’s first goal since mid-December.

The beleaguered hosts never threatened an equaliser, with Garnacho ending the match as a contest in the 67th minute – the first time the Argentina international has found the net since the end of November in all competitions.

Fernandes put the icing on the cake with a fine late third as United cruised to a win that moved Ruben Amorim’s side up to 13th while 19th-placed Leicester slipped closer to relegation.
