The hosts lead at Old Trafford. And it’s no more than they deserve after dominating an entertaining first half.
Paul Pogba and Mason Greenwood both went close before Bruno Fernandes opened his goalscoring account for the season with a tidy finish. Leeds have been second best in almost every department and can possibly consider themselves lucky to be only one goal down.
Dan James shoots from inside the Leeds penalty area after Paul Pogba had played the ball his way. He doesn’t get much welly behind a scuffed effort that may have taken a deflection and Meslier saves with ease.
Luke Ayling is beaming with delight and it’s small wonder. He picked up the ball a few yards outside the Manchester United penalty area, right-hand side, took aim and unleashed a surface to air screamer into the top left-hand corner. David De Gea didn’t get anywhere near it.
A corner for Manchester United. Mason Greenwood sends the ball long past the back post, but Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay get in each other’s way as they leap to try to head it goalwards.
