Manchester United 1-2 Leicester City: 5 talking points as Foxes conquer Old Trafford | Premier League 2020-21

#3 Anthony Elanga, remember the name!

Anthony Elanga became the 14th academy player for Manchester United to be handed his debut by Solskjaer after being named in the starting line-up. He gave a good account of himself in the match with a promising display.

The 19-year old was full of energy and demonstrated his aerial strengths too, making four offensive duels, more than any player in the game, whilst also attempting two dribbles.

He was taken off at the hour mark for Rashford, but that was certainly not because Elanga was poor. He's got the potential and can be proud of his performance on his first-team bow for Manchester United.

#4 Leicester City bolster their Champions League hopes

Leicester City's inconsistent results in the last few games had plunged their Champions League hopes into uncertainty, but were handed a repreive by a weakened Manchester United side, which the Foxes capitalized on with a comprehensive performance to take home all three points.

Having never won at Old Trafford in the 21st century, the odds were stacked against them, but the visitors came through unscathed, beating United with slick passing and a well-taken set-piece, as they opened up a healthy lead over West Ham and Liverpool to boost their own Champions League ambitions.

#5 Man City's wait is finally over

We all knew it was inevitable. But Manchester City's title celebrations were being delayed after strange results at the weekend - the first by their own loss to Chelsea, followed by Manchester United's comeback victory over Aston Villa the following day.

Although the Red Devils didn't really have a shot at the title, they hoped to push their neighbors as much as they could, but failure to win tonight just squished that, with the Sky Blues officially crowned the champions of the league.

Yet there are plenty of positives to be drawn for Manchester United as their side came closest to challenging them following Liverpool's monumental collapse and have a runners-up spot firmly in sight.
