In a dominant performance, United overcame Leicester 3-0 with goals from Hojlund, Garnacho, and Fernandes. Despite a strong start, Heaven's debut was marred by injury, requiring him to be stretchered off. Hojlund's goal marked the end of his lengthy scoring drought, while Garnacho also broke his scoreless streak. Leicester's poor form deepens their relegation issues, as they now sit 19th in the league. Amorim's strategy was evident with United controlling the game and patiently creating opportunities, while Leicester faced severe criticism from their supporters.
But Heaven's full Premier League debut came to an agonising end shortly after half-time, with the United centre-back taken off on a stretcher after lengthy treatment.
Ruben Amorim will be hoping the issue is not as severe at it looked given the way he shone during an opening period that saw Hojlund end his 21-game wait for a goal.
Relegation beckons for the toothless Foxes, who sit 19th and nine points from safety and were booed by those left at the ground.
Amorim's side dominated play from the outset as they patiently prodded and probed, creating half-chances along the way.
