VAR took a look at the incident and awarded the goal as the rules state there would only be grounds to disallow the goal if the ball touches the goalscorer’s arm in the build-up. Perez almost helped Betis add a second in the 44th minute as his low cross deflected off Raphael Varane where it then ricocheted off the post.

The ex-Newcastle man has been involved in three goals against United in his last two appearances having chipped in with two assists in the Foxes’ 4-2 win at the King Power Stadium in October 2021.Prior to that match, he had failed to register any goal involvements in his first 12 matches against the Red Devils.It was also his first goal against a Premier League side this term having drawn a blank in nine-top matches for Leicester.

Perez is a free agent at the end of the season, and his stunning strike will do no harm in him attracting potential suitors.Man United’s lead was restored early in the second half through a beautiful curling effort by Antony.
