Manchester United 1 Leeds United 2
Leeds United beat Manchester United 2-1 at Old Trafford to pull away from the relegation zone, while Manchester United sweat on Champions League qualification before a difficult game up next with Chelsea.
It was a historic and vital 2-1 victory for Leeds over Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Monday night marking The Whites first league win at the stadium since 1981. A clinical double from Noah Okafor in the first half proved decisive for Daniel Farke's side, who moved six points clear of the relegation zone.
Ref Paul Tierney was heavily criticized by Manchester United interim boss Michael Carrick for showing a straight red card to Lisandro Martinez early in the second half following a VAR review for a hair-pulling incident on Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
