Leeds United secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Manchester United at Elland Road, extending Manchester United's winless streak to six consecutive games. In a tightly contested encounter, Bryan Mbeumo put Leeds ahead in the first half, capitalizing on a header that evaded Senne Lammens' save. Manchester United, under the guidance of head coach Michael Carrick, struggled to find the back of the net despite an early flurry of action featuring yellow cards for Bruno Fernandes and Gabriel Gudmundsson.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late goal, a result of quick thinking and a well-placed run, ignited the home crowd and proved decisive.

Leeds, on the other hand, remained unbeaten at home since March and currently occupy seventh place in the standings, three points ahead of Carrick's side.
