- ‘It could have been 12-4,’ says Manchester United manager
- Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa finds it ‘very difficult to take’
Ole Gunnar Solskjær described Manchester United’s 6-2 victory over Leeds as one of the “great performances” against their cross-Pennines rivals, with his team rising to third in the Premier League.
United have been slow-starters this season but were 2-0 up inside three minutes, Scott McTominay scoring twice. Further goals by Bruno Fernandes and Victor Lindelöf and one from Liam Cooper for Leeds made it 4-1 at the interval. A second from Fernandes, Daniel James’s first league goal since August 2019 and Stuart Dallas’s fine finish for the Yorkshire club completed the scoring.
