There's not much you need to get excited about a Leeds United v Manchester United encounter; for years Leeds had been operating below the Premiership so we didn't get the chance; but now they are well & truly back in the main frame. Well; when you got two sides going hell & leather for each other's throats; played in a frosty cold winter; on a pitch that is almost unplayable due to the rainy conditions; now you got something to be excited about.
Leeds are not in the best of form at the moment; and you could see it in this encounter. They gave all the blood (literally in the case of Robin Koch); sweat & tears; but ultimately they didn't quite have the quality to show for it. Manchester United did show their togetherness and team spirit in this one; fighting back when it was not easy to do; notably when their 2-0 half-time lead was erased almost spontaneously at the start of the second half.
