Player Ratings: Manchester United 2-1 Leicester City (FA Cup)

Manchester United managed to win 2-1 against Leicester City in their fourth-round FA Cup clash at Old Trafford.

United were extremely poor in the first half of this clash and deservedly went 1-0 down before the break.

Ruben Amorim brought Alejandro Garnacho on at half-time and he injected some much needed pace and intensity into the game.

The Argentine created the equaliser scored by Joshua Zirkzee and United looked somewhat improved despite remaining pretty sloppy in their play.

In the final seconds of the game, Harry Maguire scored the winning goal with a header from a set-piece. He was controversially offside but there was no VAR in play.

United player ratings vs Leicester

André Onana – 5/10

Couldn’t do too much about the goal.

Leny Yoro – 7/10

OK first half but much better when he moved to the left in the second half.

Harry Maguire – 7.5/10

Scored the winning goal and also launched some good balls to the wide areas.

Noussair Mazraoui – 6/10

Decent display.

Patrick Dorgu – 7/10

United’s best player in the first half. Positive with his touches and created a couple of dangerous moments.

Manuel Ugarte – 4/10

Missed so many chances to find players in space and instead opting to pass backwards and then lost the ball before the Leicester goal. Poor display

Bruno Fernandes – 7/10

Much more involved in the second half with some good passes and then a great assist for the winner.

Diogo Dalot – 6.5/10

Poor first half, improved in the second. Probably should’ve had an assist after a smart pass to Garnacho.

Amad – 6.5/10

Surprisingly sloppy with some of his touches but he still offered danger on the right.

Kobbie Mainoo – 5/10

A quiet game and came off early.

Rasmus Højlund – 6.5/10

A few good moments in the second half, including the flicked effort before Zirkzee’s goal.

Alejandro Garnacho – 8/10
