The victory was uplifting, timely and crucial.

Only by overcoming difficulties one by one and getting the results of thought can we achieve the phased goals.
United started with three positional adjustments, with Jesse Lingard, Wan-Bissaka and Pogba starting. This is Lin Huang's first Premier League starter this season, after he had played less than 100 minutes in the Premier League combined. Veteran Daniel James made his debut for Leeds United.
Like the 5-1 in the first leg, Leeds United's wide-open style of play allowed United to get a lot of scoring opportunities.

In less than a minute, Leeds United snatched the ball from B Fei's feet, James crossed from the left and Rafinha shoveled the goal! The score instantly became 2-2!
Demon Shao was angry at that time, what was the situation??!! Can United really not hold on and repeat the tragedy? The fans in the fan base couldn't believe it and spat out the fragrance.
Lonnick's adjustment came, with Fred and Erlanga coming on, removing Pogba and Lingard.
As he was fighting in the rain, Fred's diminutive stature and low center of gravity had an advantage over Pogba's massive body, and three minutes after his debut, Fred scored!
Brazil's back steal successfully directed the counterattack, after the transition of Ronaldo, Sancho shifted, Fred's left foot shot, the ball was pasted into the net, manchester United led 3-2 again!

In the 85th minute, Ronnick replaced C Ronaldo with Varane, and in the 88th minute, B Fee cleverly passed and sent an assist, Andelonga did not miss this time, and ate the cake steadily! Manchester United 4-2!
After scoring, Erlanga ran to the Leeds fan stands and gestured with his index finger! for tat, no problem!
In the 92nd minute, Philpo viciously shoveled Elanga, and Fred stepped forward to take the lead for his teammates. The match ended five minutes after stoppage time and United won 4-2! Continue to rank 4th!
After the referee blew the final whistle, in the face of the curse of the Leeds fans, Erlanga had no fear, looked ahead, pointed his left finger at the Manchester United emblem on his chest, and pointed to the Elam Road Stadium at his feet: Shut up, we are Manchester United, we have won.
In the 23 minutes off the bench, Erlanga also completed three steals, tied for the highest in the team. He's not the most talented player, but he has the toughest execution. The youngster, who joined the Red Devils academy at the age of 12, certainly understands the meaning of the Rose Derby. As he wrote after the game: "God's children cannot be defeated, the Rose Derby victory belongs to us!" ”
