Manchester United followed up Thursday night's impressive Europa League win over Real Sociedad with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Leicester City in the Premier League.
The result was never really in doubt for Ruben Amorim's side, who seem to have experienced an upturn since Sir Jim Ratcliffe's round of press interviews at the start of last week.
Rasmus Hojlund scored his first goal in three months to put United ahead, before Alejandro Garnacho doubled the lead in the second half after an earlier strike was disallowed. Bruno Fernandes, who set up each of the first two goals, scored the pick of the bunch himself late on.
Leicester, beaten by United for the fourth time in three different competitions this season, have now gone seven Premier League home defeats without scoring - a new English top flight record.
