Marcus Rashford has Man United riding wave of optimism after more goals in win vs. Leicester

MANCHESTER, England -- Marcus Rashford maintained his remarkable run of goal-scoring form as Manchester United cruised past Leicester City with a 3-0 win at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Rashford scored twice to make it 16 goals in 17 games since the World Cup, before Jadon Sancho came off the bench to score a third.

United needed David de Gea to make impressive saves from Harvey Barnes and Kelechi Iheanacho with the game goalless, but Erik ten Hag's team were comfortable as soon as Rashford got his first midway through the first half as they moved to within five points of leaders Arsenal.
