Matheus Cunha saved Manchester United from a rare defeat against fierce rivals Leeds United as the Brazilian's 65th minute equaliser salvaged a 1-1 draw at Elland Road on Sunday.

Rube Amorim's side trailed to Brenden Aaronson's strike (62-nd min) before Cunha dragged them level.

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 English Premier League's top four. Amorim's men sit in fifth place after winning just one of their last five games.
