The own goal by Varane just made things worse for Manchester United just at the beginning of the second half. I thought that they would have got 2-1 ahead instead. But still they found a way to get a point by a 2-2 result at least. Even one point is valuable of course but this result is still unacceptable for the Red Devils of course.
They are much better than this. I really don't know what was wrong this time. I was seeing this game as a comfortable win for them actually.

In short terms, thats soccer!
That's really how it is. Manchester United dominated the game almost all the time, but there are these days where you concede an own goal in a very unfavorable moment. First they concede a goal in the first minute of the game, which was pushing Leeds' motivation and Manchester failed to take the opportunity several times during the first half and then you concede an own goal right after half time. Can it get any worse than that?
Not winning the full three points did indeed hurt a bit if you look at the table. Still Manchester is in a position that I guess not many would have expected them to be in by now.
