Man Utd 3-0 Leicester: Rashford scored twice and Jadon Sancho once as the Foxes were tamed
Qatari banker joins race to buy Manchester United from Glazers family
Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford’s superb run of form continued as he netted a goal in each half of his side’s 3-0 Premier League win over Leicester City to extend his scoring streak to five games.
Leicester were left to rue wasteful early finishing when Rashford latched onto a pass down the right from Bruno Fernandes and rifled the ball across keeper Danny Ward and into the net after 25 minutes at Old Trafford.
Rashford bagged his second in the 56th minute, cutting in from the left and tearing into the box before guiding the ball home to register his 14th league goal of the season and his 25th in all competitions.
Substitute Jadon Sancho added a brilliant third five minutes later when Lisandro Martinez won the ball in midfield to allow Rashford to feed Sancho, who played a quick exchange of passes with Fernandes before drilling home.

Rashford notched his second in the second half after VAR confirmed that he was onside from Fred’s pass. Jadon Sancho came off the bench to wrap up the three points by finising a fine team move.
