Leicester City are just two victories away from winning the FA Cup for the first time after beating Manchester United 3-1 to set up a Wembley semi-final against Southampton
 Despite missing James Maddison, James Justin, Harvey Barnes and Ricardo Pereira through injury, Leicester remained a force to be reckoned with and took the lead in the quarter-final tie at the King Power Stadium through Kelechi Iheanacho when the striker took advantage of a horrendous pass from Fred
United scored against the run of play through Mason Greenwood, but the Foxes remained the brighter team and regained the lead through a fine Youri Tielemans strike
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had decided to rest a handful of his United regulars but sent on Bruno Fernandes, Luke Shaw, Edinson Cavani and Scott McTominay with 25 minutes left
 However, it failed to spark the visitors as Iheanacho wrapped up the game with a back-post header with 10 minutes remaining, netting his seventh goal in his last four appearances
Leicester's win sets up a first FA Cup semi-final since 1982 for the club, while United's only hope of silverware this season now comes in the form of the Europa League
United's lacklustre play was summed up by Fred's inability to find a team-mate with most of his passes
 He lost the ball which allowed Iheanacho and Ayoze Perez to break and ended with Jamie Vardy testing Dean Henderson with a low drive
Vardy wasted a fine opening soon after when his shot was blocked by Harry Maguire with Iheanacho free but Leicester were sharper than United all over the pitch
The opener came on 24 minutes in embarrassing fashion from a United point of view
United tried to pass their way out from the back and, when Maguire played Fred into trouble, the midfielder sold Henderson woefully short
It allowed Iheanacho to nip in, round the goalkeeper and tap into an empty net for his 12th goal in 18 FA Cup appearances
The goal seemed to give United a wake-up call and they equalised seven minutes before the break
Paul Pogba found space on the left and his cross was dummied by Donny van de Beek for Greenwood to sweep in from eight yards
Perez came close to restoring Leicester's lead ahead of half-time only for his 18-yard effort to go wide
An improved showing from Solskjaer's team was expected after the break although the boss resisted the urge to make any changes
Perhaps that was a decision he regretted six minutes after the break, when Tielemans restored Leicester's lead
The midfielder swapped passes around Matic with Iheanacho to drive towards goal and United's defence parted to allow the Belgium international to find the bottom corner from 18 yards in classy fashion
Vardy then should have ended the tie after 58 minutes
Iheanacho was involved as he found the striker who skipped past a static Maguire but, with just Henderson to beat, dragged wide of the near post
Solskjaer then made the quadruple change but it did little to change United's fortunes
Leicester carried a huge threat on the break and Iheanacho sealed Leicester's progress with 12 minutes left, heading home Marc Albrighton's free-kick
The Leicester midfield is everything a Manchester United midfield should be, led masterfully by Ndidi
 His partnership in there with Tielemans has the perfect balance of steel and quality
 They ran Fred and Matic ragged in the heart of the pitch as Ndidi tackled everything that moved
A special mention to Iheanacho, too
 He has found the goalscoring touch of late and his partnership with Vardy continues to impress
Manchester United return from the international break with a game against Brighton at Old Trafford on Sunday April 4 (7
