A goal from Maguire in the last minute of stoppage time avoided United’s triumph against Leicester (2-2). A win in which Mata could’ve been responsible. The Spanish international player made a spectacular performance scoring two goals. The first of them, a subtle shot that was very well placed and meant the 1-1 on the 40′. The second on the 60, from a free kick, got the 1-2. The score until Maguire made his goal. Vardy on the 27 scored the first goal for Leicester.
