David de Gea has equalled Peter Schmeichel’s record tally of clean sheets for Manchester United after putting in a fantastic performance against Leicester City.
United picked up a valuable three points with a commanding 3-0 win over Leicester in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. Two goals from Marcus Rashford and one from Jadon Sancho saw them climb to within three points of rivals Manchester City.
But their victory did not look so assured early on, with De Gea called into action on two occasions to keep out Harvey Barnes and Kelechi Iheanacho. The Spaniard’s reaction stops were impressive and saw him create a piece of United history in the process.
