Marcus Rashford ended Manchester United's penalty curse and got Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's injury-hit side back to winning ways as Leicester's unbeaten start to the season came to an end.
A number of onlookers made the Foxes favourites for their Old Trafford reunion with Harry Maguire given the way Brendan Rodgers' side have impressed in the early weeks of the campaign.
United have dropped points and that form was compounded injury issues, but the world's most expensive defender helped his new employers keep a rare clean sheet on an afternoon when Rashford's early penalty proved enough to secure a 1-0 win. Re-live the action below:

Team news
Jurgen Klopp makes two changes his Liverpool side that last played before the international break.
Roberto Firmino drops to the bench with Divock Origi coming into attack, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also gets a start as he replaces Jordan Henderson in midfield.
Just the on change for Newcastle. Jonjo Shelvey replaces Sean Longstaff who picked up a 'freak' ankle injury in training.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain makes his first Premier League start at Anfield for 17 months.
The last game Oxlade-Chamberlain started for Liverpool, at Anfield in the Premier League, was in a 3-0 victory over Bournemouth in April 2018.
Some promising signs for Newcastle fans is the away form of the team. They've won three of their last five away league games, as many as in their past 24 attempts.
More importantly they've scored in six of the seven most recent away fixtures. Liverpool sit top of the table and travelling to Anfield is always tricky but can Steve Bruce's men pull something off today?
No Alisson until October says Jurgen Klopp. But Naby Keita's return could be relatively soon:
Speaking to BT Sport about his team's changes Jurgen Klopp said:
"Hendo is ready, Bobby is probably ready, but it's not about being ready - it's a bigger picture and we have to think about that.
"We could have made more changes but we need the rhythm as well and it makes not too much sense. A lot of games are coming up.
"We did it with all, we respect Newcastle too much for rotating for rotating. We really want to have the best starting line-up we can have for the specific opponent and that's what we thought is the right one.
"We could train with that group since Wednesday or so and that helps; OK, Fabinho came in a bit late but with all the others we could train since Wednesday. So that's good and that's what we try to use."
Steve Bruce says the victory over Tottenham completely changed the view on his appointment as head coach.
"The atmosphere changed overnight. All of a sudden it became he's not tactically inept, he's not that, he's not this. Before we couldn't even do a warm up.
"I was getting all sorts of questions were you think, that's a bit harsh because you don't manage 400 odd games in the Premier League without knowing how to set up a team."
More from Steve Bruce as he discussed the challenges of facing Liverpool:
"We are going to the European champions and they are as good a team as you will ever play against, so we'll have to defend well.
"It's always been a big fixture and you want to go there and take them on. It's what we're in it for. The core of the squad have been together a couple of years and they're a really honest and genuine group.
"When you've got that, you're capable of doing anything. They've gone to Spurs and won and they beat Man City last year, so they've got it in them."
Steve Bruce took over at Newcastle when Rafa Benitez left in the summer. He took a lot of stick because Rafa was adored by the fans but he's winning them over and Jurgen Klopp agrees, he said:
"Steve Bruce, for sure, has a difficult job but he has done fantastic so far. They have kept the style of last season. They sold Salomon Rondon, got Joelinton and he is similar. They have speed for counters.
"It won't be easy. People expect it, probably, but I am really impressed by the solutions they have found so far."
The international break is over and the Premier League is back. The teams are in the tunnel and kick off is five minutes away.
