Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised his back four after their 1-0 win at Leicester City.

Marcus Rashford's ninth minute goal proved the difference at the King Power Stadium, but Solskjaer also singled out the displays of his two centre-backs in the 1-0 win.

"Fantastic to have a clean sheet," Solskjaer said after the game.

"And they (Eric Bailly and Victor Lindelof) played well against Arsenal together. Today, we started a little sloppy - Eric knows - but they really came good.

"It's a first [clean sheet] in a while, we've had three games now, Burnley , Brighton and Arsenal, where we've conceded after a couple of clean sheets, but that's important for us."

Solskjaer added that he was less happy with the nervy nature of the scoreline.

"Of course it was [heart-stopping] towards the end," he continued.

"When you're 1-0 up, anything can happen in that box and I think that Harry Maguire has got a magnet on his head! Because it always dropped to him, a fantastic player in the box.

"So we knew we had to defend against him but our lads, they blocked, they put their body on the line so it was a fantastic effort and they were fighting for each other."
