Leeds Hold Manchester United to 1-1 Draw at Elland Road

The draw extends Leeds’ unbeaten run, leaving Manchester United outside the Champions League places.

Overview

  • Brenden Aaronson put Leeds ahead in the 62nd minute before Matheus Cunha equalised three minutes later for United.
  • Manchester United missed the chance to climb into fourth place, while Leeds’ run stretches to seven unbeaten and they sit eight points above the relegation zone.
  • Ruben Amorim travelled with a severely depleted squad due to injuries to Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Matthijs de Ligt, Kobbie Mainoo and Mason Mount, plus AFCON absences.
  • Amorim reiterated there are no active January transfer discussions despite the shortages, keeping reliance on current options.
  • Leny Yoro started in place of Joshua Zirkzee as United’s selection tweak, and their away defensive streak continued with a 15th straight league game conceding.
