U prvom dvoboju 15. kola Engleske lige na Stjepanovo (Boxing Day) Leicester City i Manchester United su odigrali 2-2 pa je na King Power stadionu prekinut zastrašujući niz od 10 uzastopnih prvenstvenih pobjeda Uniteda u gostima.
Marcus Rashford je doveo Unitedu vodstvo u 23. minuti na dodavanje Bruna Fernandesa, a osam minuta kasnije izjednačio je Harvey Barnes udarcem izvana. Novo vodstvo Crvenim vragovima donosi Fernandes u 79. minuti nakon proigravanja Edinsona Cavanija, no 11. pobjedu u nizu Uniteda sprječava Jamie Vardy pet minuta prije kraja.
