Cunha rescues Man Utd in draw with rivals Leeds
January 05, 2026
|The Mercury
MATHEUS Cunha saved Manchester United from a rare defeat against fierce rivals Leeds as the Brazilian’s equaliser salvaged a 1-1 draw at Elland Road yesterday.
-
Rubem Amorim’ side trailed to Brenden Aaronson’s second half strike before Cunha dragged them level moments later.
In a bitter rivalry keenly felt among two feuding fan-bases, Leeds have now gone eight matches without a win over United since an FA Cup triumph at Old Trafford in 2010.
United’s failure to take all three points cost them a chance to move into the Premier League's top four.
Amorim’s men sit in fifth place after winning just one of their last five league games.
After a disappointing 1-1 draw against lowly Wolves on Tuesday, this was another frustrating result for United.
Daniel Farke’s team moved eight points clear of the relegation zone after extended their impressive unbeaten run to seven matches.
Still without injured captain Bruno Fernandes, Amorim sent United out in his preferred 3-4-2-1 shape after finally tinkering with his much-derided tactics for the recent win over Newcastle, then revering to type against Wolves.
