Old Trafford has had reasons to celebrate this year but tonight's celebration will certainly live on in the hearts of Machester United fans around the world. The 2-2 scoreline cannot justify the breathtaking moments as they experienced an exhilarating ninety minutes of football.

An early goal for Leeds United looked to have torn all up all the plans Erik Ten Hag and his team had made over the last few days in preparation for this game. But United pressed on as they had 89 minutes of football to turn things around.

This is the reason why Manchester United fans are furious at the break

The Red Devils ended up unable to turn things around at halftime despite having six shots in the half and the majority of the possession. The second-half start got a similar introduction as they conceded yet another goal but this time from their experienced center-back, Raphael Varane's own goal. 

Then Erik Ten Hag ripped his plan A apart and brought on Jadon Sancho and Facundo Pellstri to influence the game and they did, as Marcus Rashford headed home a Diogo Dalot cross to reduce the deficit by one. Moments later, the returning Jadon Sancho slot the equalizer from an open space in the Leeds United 18-yard box to put United back on leveled terms.

What was Ten Hag's reaction to Sancho's goal?

The Red Devils manager was overjoyed as he watched Sancho's effort hit the back of the net to put United level on scores with the visitors. Erik Ten Hag first bombed the air with both hands as he celebrated the equalizer with the United fanbase across the world. This was Sancho's first goal of the year which earned United a valid one point.
