  "account": "Manchester United secured a 1-1 draw with Leeds at Leeds' Elland Road stadium on Sunday, marking a minor respite in their ongoing winless streak of six matches across all competitions. The match did, however, extend United's six-match winless run. Carrick, who replaced an injured Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the second half, expressed a sense of positivity post-match, despite the team's continued struggle for a win. United boss, who had previously started Atletico Madrid opponent Lisandro Martinez in a match, noted that while they were not celebrating prematurely, today's performance felt like a fresh start in their quest for a positive outcome. Carrick emphasized the importance of the team's unity and their strong desire to succeed for each other. United aims to break their current losing streak with a victory in their next match against Bournemouth, currently sitting 13th in the league standings.",
  "summary": "LONDON: Michael Carrick said Manchester United’s hard-fought 1-1 draw at bitter rivals Leeds on Sunday felt like a “fresh start” even though their long wait for a win goes on.",
