RUUD VAN NISTELROOY signed off in style after finishing his caretaker shift with Manchester United on a high.
The Dutchman will hand over the reins to Ruben Amorim this week and wait to find out if he still has a role at Old Trafford.
But he will leave behind a team unbeaten in his four games in charge and with some momentum and goals behind them at last.
Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring inside 20 minutes with a great finish.
An own goal from Victor Kristiansen doubled United's advantage, before substitute Alejandro Garnacho confirmed Leicester's fifth league defeat of the season with a stunning strike in the closing minutes.
Van Nistelrooy dropped Garnacho in favour of Amad Diallo, who scored twice in the victory over PAOK in the Europa League on had Thursday. He also recalled centre-backs Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt.
Leicester, meanwhile, made three changes, with Jordan Ayew, James Justin and Boubakary Soumare all returning at the expense of Jamie Vardy, Stephy Mavididi and Ricardo Pereira.
