Manchester United's 2-0 win over Leicester City may have ensured Champions League football for the Reds, but there were a number of other landmarks that came out of the game.

United set a new Premier League record in the East Midlands, while David De Gea also achieved his own club benchmark.

To find out exactly what we're talking about, take a look at our seven best post-match stats...

PENALTY KINGS

Manchester United’s spot-kick at Leicester was the 14th we’ve been awarded in the Premier League in the 2019/20 season – the most any side has won in one campaign in the history of the division.

DE GEA PASSES SCHMEICHEL

Our 2-0 win means David De Gea has now surpassed Peter Schmeichel as the United keeper with the most clean sheets in the Premier League (113).

TRANSFORMATIVE EFFECT

Since Bruno Fernandes made his United debut on 1 February, the Reds have won more Premier League points (32) than any other team. The Portuguese playmaker also tops the division for goal involvements (15) in that time.

OUR FEARSOME FOURSOME

Bruno’s penalty was his 10th goal of the season, meaning he joins Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford (22 goals each) and Mason Greenwood (17 goals) on double figures for the campaign.

JESSE ENDS HIS DROUGHT

Jesse Lingard scored his first Premier League goal for Manchester United since December 2018, when he hit two in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first game in charge against Cardiff. It was also the final strike in the division in 2019/20.

THE RUN CONTINUES

The Reds finished the campaign on an unbroken sequence of 14 games without defeat, which was twice as long as any other side in the league (Southampton are unbeaten in seven, while Spurs have gone six without losing).

JOY ON THE ROAD

The Reds completed the season with four consecutive wins away from home in the Premier League, against Brighton, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Leicester, all without conceding a goal. We’d only won four times in our 19 previous league fixtures on the road, keeping just two clean sheets (Burnley and Chelsea).
