Leeds United Shocks Manchester United with 2-1 Victory

Leeds United secured a historic 2-1 victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford, ending a 45-year wait for a league win at the stadium. Leeds forward Noah Okafor scored both goals in the first half, capitalizing on defensive mistakes from Manchester United.
The home side faced a significant setback early in the second half when Lisandro Martinez received a red card after a VAR review for pulling Dominic Calvert-Lewin's hair. Despite being a man down, Manchester United managed to pull a goal back through a powerful header from Casemiro.
Leeds, managed by Daniel Farke, successfully held onto their lead, marking their first league win at Old Trafford since 1979. This victory boosts Leeds' fight against relegation, moving them six points clear of the drop zone, while Manchester United's defeat is a setback as they aim for a strong finish in the league.
