Man United vs Leeds United

Manchester United host Leeds United – who are without a manager at the moment – in the first of a Premier League doubleheader this week between the two ...

Fred seems to be appealing for a red card, but no chance. Shaw hits a great cross into the Leeds box. Fernandes hits a powerful low free kick into the Leeds box. I don't think we did something differently. We have to go again on Sunday." They stuck to the plan today." On Wilfried Gnonto: "I think he is pivotal to the team. We did that really well." I'm really proud of the performance of the players. We made two great team goals. On whether Leeds' quick start surprised his players: "It looked like it but not me.

Assistants Michael Skubala, Paco Gallardo, and Chris Armas will share the duties against Manchester United today.

Weston McKennie makes his first start for Leeds alongside his buddy Tyler Adams in midfield, after coming off the bench for his debut against Nottingham Forest last time out. De Gea (GK) — 20. Leeds sit 17th in the Premier League table, without a league win since October and above the relegation zone only on goal difference.

1/2— Jamie Gardner (@PAJamieGardner) Yet the report states they are keeping their options open and have no interest in a majority takeover of Manchester United. United only found a need for a new midfielder after Christian Eriksen went down injured for months near the end of January, and managed to bring over an excellent replacement from Bayern Munich. I wrote about the odd timing of the decision at the link below, and the NBC crew in the United States discussed the change prior to the match. It's quite the ask on his Premier League debut against a very strong opponent in a hostile environment, though. Leeds press very high and win the ball through debutant Weston McKennie, and Gnonto lets it fly at the top of the penalty area, producing a stunning finish to stun the home crowd just seconds into the match! The ball deflects off a number of players challenging in the air, and falls right to Pascal Struijk at the far post who's unmarked, but it surprised him off the deflection and he fails to control the ball off his chest. On a three-on-two break, a Bruno Fernandes cross finds Garnacho in acres of space, and rips it hard and low, with a shot that beats Illan Meslier but beats the post! Man United get Alejandro Garnacho in on goal which forces Iller Meslier off his line to contest, and while he doesn't do enough to halt the chance, he gets just enough of a touch to give his defence an extra moment. The entirety of Old Trafford — both sets of fans — are up in arms, with the home fans wanting a yellow card and the traveling fans believing that's a soft call. Leeds sit 17th in the Premier League table, without a league win since October and above the relegation zone only on goal difference. While the club has not yet identified his replacement, a managerial shakeup always makes things more unusual for the upcoming opponent, and it will be interesting to see how United handle the task.

Report and free match highlights as Man Utd overturn two-goal deficit to salvage a draw against bitter rivals Leeds at Old Trafford; Wilfried Gnonto strikes ...

United miss the chance to go level on points with second-placed City, while Leeds push themselves a point clear of the relegation zone but are now winless in eight league games. The other three, understandably straightforward given that lack of training-ground time, read: 'Close middle', 'Believe', 'Be calm'. United looked lost after going behind and could not cope with Leeds' blistering intensity but defensive interventions from Lisandro Martinez kept the deficit to one. Up the other end, Bruno Fernandes' close-range effort was blocked after Rashford's cross picked him out. Fred had a long-range strike saved by Meslier as United pushed for a winner with Rashford also denied by the French goalkeeper in the closing stages from a set-piece, but Leeds clung on to leave Old Trafford with a point. Leeds came out firing in the second half and made United pay as Varane's own goal doubled the advantage, but Rashford turned the tide for a sleepy United with a header just past the hour, giving Old Trafford hope of a comeback.
