It was a miserable return to Old Trafford for former assistant boss Ruud Van Nistelrooy as his Leicester side lost 2-1 to Manchester United. The Red Devils are the holders of this cup and trailed to a Bobby Reid goal, moments before half-time.

The signs looked ominous and it looked like a case of Deja Vu. United started with a front-three of Amad Diallo, Rasmus Hojlund and Kobbe Mainoo, it appeared this decision back fired as Leicester took the lead through Bobby Reid.

The signs were looking ominous for The Red Devils, but goals from Joshua Zirkzee who has been criticised by the Man United faithful and Harry Maguire who also hasn’t escaped the United boo boys in the past, got the goals which keeps Manchester United’s name in the hat.
