Before Wednesday’s game against Manchester United the Leeds owner, Andrea Radrizzani, asked fans to be patient as the new manager hunt unfolded. While Orta is an admirer of Mauricio Pochettino, it is thought unlikely that the former Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham manager would relish a relegation skirmish. Hopefully white smoke by tonight or [tomorrow] morning.” Yet by Wednesday morning Radrizzani was more circumspect, posting: “Not yet…….need more time.”

It also means that there are reasons to be optimistic about the future. I got to know Jesse well during his 12 months at Elland Road and it was abundantly clear he cared passionately about the club. At times there have been really promising signs, but the fans and the board at Leeds wanted more. Against Forest, although they dominated in the first half and created the better chances, a worrying pattern had started to develop which had become a huge concern for fans. West Brom head coach Carlos Corberan was one of the first names linked to the Leeds job having worked under Marcelo Bielsa at Elland Road. Seven Premier League games without a win and just two wins in the last 17 league games.

Jadon Sancho marked his first Premier League appearance since October with the equaliser as Manchester United fought back to draw with Leeds.

He gets a tame shot away but comes through the tightest of gaps and Meslier has to do better as it nestles into the net! MANCHESTER UNITED 2-2 LEEDS (JADON SANCHO): He hasn't played in the Premier League since October but Sancho has come off the bench to help rescue Manchester United! It's a brilliant header from Rashford as he meets Dalot's cross, grabbing his 20th goal of the season. It looks destined for the top corner until a fully stretched Meslier makes a one-handed stop to push it away. Less than a minute on the clock, they're on the scoresheet! The Red Devils gave themselves a mountain to climb following some slack defending and required a change in personnel and tactics 15 minutes into the second half in order to begin their fightback.

Man United fight back vs Leeds but drop points in title race (ESPN)

Man United can take pride in coming back from two goals down to draw vs. Leeds, but those dropped points will prove costly in the title race.

men's national team](/soccer/team/_/id/660/united-states) duo [Tyler Adams](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/222776/Tyler-Adams) and [Weston McKennie](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/256715/Weston-McKennie) together for the first time since McKennie's January move from [Juventus](/soccer/team?id=111). With Casemiro banned for the next two league games and [Scott McTominay](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/255850/Scott-McTominay) sidelined with injury, it's likely Ten Hag will have to use the same midfield at Elland Road on Sunday, and that will be a worry after watching Leeds dominate large spells of the game. [Marcus Rashford](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/230945/Marcus-Rashford)'s 12th goal in his past 14 United appearances got the hosts back into the game before [Jadon Sancho](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/259836/Jadon-Sancho) came off the bench to earn Erik ten Hag's side a point with his first goal since September. It didn't help that Sabitzer, making his full debut after his deadline day move from [Bayern Munich](/soccer/team?id=132), took a while to get used to the pace of the game, but the fact that United looked so rushed was credit to Adams and McKennie.

He took risks with the ball in attacking areas and took his goal well after creating the chance himself with a dart into the penalty area. Especially in a derby, you have to be ready to battle and take responsibility. Second-half goals from Rashford -- his 20th of the season in all competitions -- and Sancho ensured Ten Hag's team didn't fall to a first home defeat in the Premier League since August, but it was still a far better result for Leeds, who had their preparation dominated by [the sacking of manager Jesse Marsch](/soccer/leeds-united-engleeds/story/4871020/jesse-marsch-sacked-by-leeds-after-poor-run-of-results) on Monday.

Man Utd 2-2 Leeds: Jadon Sancho saves draw as hosts come from ... (Sky Sports)

Report and free match highlights as Man Utd overturn two-goal deficit to salvage a draw against bitter rivals Leeds at Old Trafford; Wilfried Gnonto strikes ...

United miss the chance to go level on points with second-placed City, while Leeds push themselves a point clear of the relegation zone but are now winless in eight league games. The other three, understandably straightforward given that lack of training-ground time, read: 'Close middle', 'Believe', 'Be calm'. United looked lost after going behind and could not cope with Leeds' blistering intensity but defensive interventions from Lisandro Martinez kept the deficit to one. Up the other end, Bruno Fernandes' close-range effort was blocked after Rashford's cross picked him out. Fred had a long-range strike saved by Meslier as United pushed for a winner with Rashford also denied by the French goalkeeper in the closing stages from a set-piece, but Leeds clung on to leave Old Trafford with a point. Leeds came out firing in the second half and made United pay as Varane's own goal doubled the advantage, but Rashford turned the tide for a sleepy United with a header just past the hour, giving Old Trafford hope of a comeback.

Instead, Leeds held out for five minutes of stoppage time, doing well to kill our momentum on occasion, and will be the more pleased of the two sides with the outcome. His cross found the head of Rashford and the England forward guided the ball over Meslier to bag his 20th goal of the season to give the fans hope. The pair exchanged some brilliant passes in the area before the recently returned Sancho fired a low driven shot past Meslier to bring the Stretford End to its feet and take the scoreline to 2-2. And after that, United refused to lose as Sancho managed to bring the game level. Latching on to a Sabitzer pass, Pellistri got the better of Junior Firpo on the right-hand side and laid the ball off to Diogo Dalot. United responded quickly, with Wout Weghorst receiving the ball from Fernandes on the right wing, the Dutch forward picked out a long weighted pass to Rashford.

Gnonto (19y 95d) became the youngest player to score a Premier League goal against Man Utd at Old Trafford since Jermain Defoe (19y 62d) for West Ham in December 2001. Only in 2013-14 (five) and 2018-19 (six) have the Red Devils lost more Sunday games in a single campaign in the competition. This result also meant that the Yorkshire side are winless in their last 18 away league games against Man Utd (D7 L11), equalling their longest away winless run versus an opponent (also 18 games vs. In fact, Gnonto was the youngest overseas player to score an away goal versus Man Utd. That eight-game winless streak is the current longest in the Premier League. With 43 points from 22 Premier League matches so far in 2022-23, Erik ten Hag’s start as Man Utd manager has seen them collect five points more than they had at this stage last season under Ole Gunnar Solskjær and Ralf Rangnick. After losing a 2-0 lead, Leeds have now dropped 15 points from winning positions in the 2022-23 Premier League – only Leicester City (19) have dropped more. Part one of this Premier League double-header ended in an entertaining 2-2 draw at Old Trafford on Wednesday night. Only Arsenal (four times) have scored four or more goals at Elland Road as visitors in the competition more often.
