Manchester United’s first visit to a full Elland Road since 2003 coincided with a day of torrential rain and capriciously gusty winds in West Yorkshire. If the tricky conditions, not least a sodden, pitch, were hostile, so, too was the atmosphere.
To say there is a certain antipathy between these two sets of fans would be putting it mildly and a competing soundtrack featuring the Leeds anthem, “Marching on Together” and “Pride of all Europe” from the visitors, only served to heighten the frenetic on-field intensity.
With Bielsa’s side struggling to retain possession on the heavy surface, Rangnick’s players exerted the greater control and cohesion. They came close to opening the scoring when the initially influential Paul Pogba – nutmegged a startled Diego Llorente before crossing in Cristiano Ronaldo’s direction. It took an intervention from Illan Meslier’s knee to divert the resultant close range shot.
Apparent Ronaldo-centric tensions within Old Trafford seemingly prefaced Rangnick holding a series of tete-a-tete talks with senior players including his No7, Pogba and Harry Maguire last week.
Maguire has denied suggestions of a rift with Ronaldo and the pair certainly combined to positive effect as Manchester United took the lead from a Luke Shaw corner. With Ronaldo serving as a decoy, distracting the Leeds defence, and Meslier caught wrong-footed, Maguire was able to head his first goal in a United shirt since January 2021.
