Anthony Martial's opener was cancelled out by Wes Morgan as the Foxes were made to wait for a first league title
Leicester went a point closer to the most unlikely league title of all time but failed to finish the job in a pulsating match at Old Trafford.
Anthony Martial fired Manchester United ahead with an early strike, before Wes Morgan earned the Foxes a share of the spoils.
Danny Drinkwater was sent off for two bookable offences late in the game in an incident which could have seen the Red Devils given a penalty, but referee Michael Oliver adjudged the offence was outside the box.
Robert Huth caught the eye of our man John Cross, but who was your man of the match at the Theatre of Dreams?
Here are the full player ratings...
Manchester United
De Gea 7 - Beat away Schlupp effort, denied Mahrez and did well.
Valencia 8 - Very influential, set up the opening goal and played well.
Smalling 7 - Solid and combative display in front of England coach Ray Lewington.
Blind 7 - Very solid, excellent defensive display to frustrate Ulloa.
Rojo 5 - Had a poor game, he’s nowhere near Manchester United quality.
Carrick 6 - Booked. His lack of pace exposed by Leicester’s midfield work rate.
Fellaini 8 - May face retrospective action for Huth tussle, but also very effective.
Lingard 7 - Booked. His pace caused problems, nearly undid Simpson.
Rooney 7 - Booked. Proved that he’s fit, even if he’s yet to hit top gear.
Martial 7 - Superb finish, continues to have excellent first season for United.
Rashford - Subdued by recent standards, couldn’t affect the game enough.
Substitutes - Mata, for Lingard, 62 mins, 6, Herrera, for Fellaini, 75 mins, 6, Depay, for Rooney, 82 mins
Leicester
Schmeichel 7 - Brilliant save from Lingard to maintain proud family history at Old Trafford.
Simpson 5 - Exposed on the opening goal, mistake nearly let in Lingard.
Morgan 7 - Battled so hard, deserved his equaliser in a captain’s display.
Huth 9 - Had a real ding-dong with Fellaini. Warrior like display.
Fuchs 7 - Excellent again, surely the best left back in the Premier League.
Mahrez 8 - Excellent. Unlucky not to get a penalty after tricking Rojo.
Kante 8 - Covered every blade of grass, he was superhuman. As usual.
Drinkwater 7 - Sent off for two yellows, lucky not to concede a penalty. Assist on opener.
Schlupp 7 - His pace and directness gives Leicester extra dimension.
Okazaki 7 - Worked hard, ran himself into the ground and subbed early.
Ulloa 6 - Had some decent openings, didn’t come off for him.
Substitutes - Gray, for Okazaki, 67 mins, 7, Albrighton, for Schlupp, 77 mins, King, for Mahrez, 86 mins
