Fred earns sluggish Manchester United draw against Leicester City
Manchester United needed a rare goal by midfielder Fred to salvage an unconvincing 1-1 Premier League draw with Leicester City at Old Trafford on Saturday. Kelechi Iheanacho had put the visitors ahead, nodding an inch-perfect James Maddison cross past David de Gea after Fred was dispossessed on a United counter-attack. But the Brazillian levelled three minutes later after Leicester failed to clear the ball, Bruno Fernandes shooting from the edge of the box and Fred tapping home the rebound after Kasper Schmeichel pushed it out. United struggled for fluency throughout and remained sixth in the table and in serious danger of failing to finish in the top four and earn a Champions League spot next season. "Everyone gave everything," Fernandes told Sky Sports. "I don’t believe there’s anyone who didn’t give everything in the game. Nobody lacked intensity. We have to keep fighting. As I said before, we have to keep looking at our own games."
