Manchester United, recovering from the recent dismissal of Erik ten Hag, dominated Leicester with a smashing 5-2 victory, scoring four times within the first 38 minutes of their English League Cup clash.
As Ruud van Nistelrooy took temporary charge, United showcased a rejuvenated offensive play against a struggling Leicester side. Casemiro's two electrifying first-half goals demonstrated the attacking flair that had been absent.
Meanwhile, Tottenham's victory over Manchester City was marred by multiple injuries, notably to Savinho and Manuel Akanji, further complicating City's lineup under Pep Guardiola amid their Premier League campaign.
