Marcus Rashford’s goal was enough to secure a 1-0 win at the King Power Stadium.

Marcus Rashford and Leicester favourite Harry Maguire were the only players to retain their place in the line-up on Tuesday. Maguire produced some fine passes the day after Southgate bracketed him among Europe’s best ball-playing defenders, while Rashford followed his strike against Spain with another smart finish. The forward has made just one start for Manchester United this term and this form will make him even more frustrated to face suspension on his return to domestic action.
On the road again…
