Manchester United's Marcus Rashford scored a crucial penalty goal to give his team a 1-0 win over Leicester at Old Trafford on September 14, 2019.
The win marked United's second victory of the campaign, coming after a disappointing start to the season.
Leicester, who were third in the table at the time, dominated large parts of the game, but United's defense held strong, with goalkeeper David de Gea making several key saves.
Rashford's penalty goal came in the first half, after he was fouled by Leicester's Caglar Soyuncu. The England forward showed composure and placed the ball into the bottom corner of the goal, sending Leicester's Kasper Schmeichel the wrong way.
The win was a much-needed boost for United, who had faced intense pressure following a chaotic start to the season, marked by costly penalty misses by Paul Pogba and Rashford.
United's £80 million defender Harry Maguire, who was facing his former club for the first time since his summer move, was booed and subjected to insulting chants from Leicester's supporters throughout the game.
