In a spectacular display at Old Trafford, Manchester United advanced to the League Cup quarter-finals with a 5-2 win over Leicester City. The match was their first under interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy following Erik ten Hag's exit.

Casemiro opened the scoring with an impressive long-range strike, quickly followed by Alejandro Garnacho's goal from Diogo Dalot's assist. Leicester responded through Bilal El Khannouss, but Bruno Fernandes's deflected free kick reestablished United's comfortable lead.

Despite Conor Coady's timely goal before halftime, Fernandes secured the victory with a composed finish in the second half, ensuring Manchester United's place in the next stage of the competition.
