Leeds United and Manchester United played to a 1-1 draw at Elland Road, extending the visitors' winless Premier League streak to five matches.
Bryan Mbeumo struck in the 35th minute, turning home a delivery from Youri Tielemans for his fourth goal of the campaign. The goal gave Man United their first half-time lead in the league this season.
Leeds captain Ethan Ampadu marked his 100th appearance with the armband as his side levelled six minutes after the interval. Dominic Calvert-Lewin shrugged off Mbeumo's challenge to smash home from near the six-yard box in the 51st minute.
Visiting goalkeeper Senne Lammens produced several saves to preserve the point, including a late stop from Anton Stach. Leeds goalkeeper James Trafford also stood firm as the hosts' 24-year wait for a home victory over Man United continued. Man United manager Michael Carrick saw Lisandro Martínez replaced by Noussair Mazraoui at halftime, while Man United captain Bruno Fernandes was booked for a late challenge on Tarik Muharemovic. Referee Darren England also showed Gabriel Gudmundsson a yellow card for a lunge on Andrey Santos.
