Fred and Elanga sneak win for Manchester United at Leeds

Second-half goals from substitutes Fred and Anthony Elanga earned Manchester United a 2-4 victory over Leeds United in a vibrant, end-to-end contest at a wet and windy Elland Road on Sunday.

Maguire heads home

In a red-hot atmosphere, the visitors took the lead in the 34th minute, with captain Harry Maguire heading home to score his side's first league goal from a corner so far this season. As the rain became more torrential, United compounded the home side's woes when Bruno Fernandes, who scored a hat-trick in the reverse fixture earlier this season, squeezed another header into the net in stoppage time just before the break.

Seemingly dead and buried, Leeds turned the match on its head with two goals in less than a minute early in the second to lift the roof off Elland Road. Spanish forward Rodrigo's cross managed to loop over United keeper David de Gea and into the net before Dan James squared for Leeds substitute Raphinha to level at the far post.

The visitors were the ones to get over the line, however, as Fred rifled his side in front 20 minutes from time before Elanga settled the contest with a late fourth. The result moved fourth-placed United onto 46 points, four behind Chelsea in third, while Leeds, who travel to Liverpool on Wednesday, remain in 15th, five points above the relegation zone.
