Manchester United caretaker manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hailed Leicester City defender, Harry Maguire following his side’s Premier League 1-0 victory over Leicester on Sunday.
Striker, Marcus Rashford scored the only goal of the game in the ninth minute to hand Manchester United all three points against Leicester.
Solskjaer was impressed with Maguire’s performance against the Red Devils, describing the centre-back as ‘fantastic’.
“When you’re only 1-0 up, anything can happen in that box,” Solskjaer was quoted by Metro UK as saying after the match.
“And I think that Harry Maguire has got a magnet on his head because it nearly always drops to him.
“A fantastic player in the box. So we knew we had to defend against him and out lads, they blocked, put their bodies on the line so it was a fantastic effort and they were fighting for each other.”
