United too good for Foxes; Sturridge helps Reds to win

Robin van Persie and Radamel Falcao were on target as Manchester United despatched Leicester 3-1 in their Barclays Premier League clash at Old Trafford.

Van Persie opened the scoring just before the half-hour mark with a superb strike and the Dutchman, whose future at the club has been placed in doubt following a drop in form, was involved in the build-up to the second that was finished by Falcao.
