Brendan Rodgers explains one 'difference' between Leicester City and Manchester United

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers thinks Manchester United's clinicalness in front of goal was the only difference between the two sides during their 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford.

The Foxes began the game on top and forced David de Gea into several top-class saves to keep the game level. These missed chances would prove costly for the visitors in the 25th minute when Marcus Rashford broke the offside trap to give United the lead.

After the break, the Reds were much more of a threat and doubled their advantage in similar fashion in front of the Stretford End, following a VAR review. Substitute Jadon Sancho made it three on the hour mark as Rodgers' side were put to the sword.
