Moore insists Leicester always confident beating Man Utd

Leicester City defender Liam Moore says they went into their victory over Manchester United not feeling as underdogs.

City's 5-3 demolition of the former Premier League champions on Sunday may have come as a shock to many pundits, but Moore insists everyone as the club knew they could produce such a performance.

"To say we have beaten United sounds great, the lads said that in the changing room afterwards," he told the Leicester Mercury.

"You sit back and think, 'We've just beaten Man United.' It was something surreal but something we were capable of if we got the game-plan right.

"This is right up there (in his achievements). This is one of the biggest teams in the world we have beaten.

"They came to the KP and we really showed them what we're about."
