Pundit Slams Manchester United After Embarrassing Draw to Leeds United.

Manchester United’s hopes of closing the gap on Premier League title contenders Arsenal and Manchester City took a hit after a dramatic 2-2 draw against Leeds United at Old Trafford. The result means that the Red Devils remain five points adrift of leaders Arsenal and level with Manchester City.

The home side got off to a disastrous start as Wilfried Gnonto gave Leeds an early lead after just one minute.

Things went from bad to worse for United as Raphael Varane turned Crysencio Summerville’s cross into his own net shortly after the half-time break.

However, the hosts mounted a comeback with two quickfire goals from Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho. Rashford extended his impressive run of form, scoring his 23rd goal of the season, while Sancho marked his return to the first team with his first Premier League goal since September.

Despite the comeback, former Chelsea defender Jason Cundy stated that the draw will feel like a defeat for Manchester United and further proof that they are still a way off from challenging Arsenal and Manchester City for the title.

That’s not a good result for Manchester United – that’s a bad result,’ he said on TalkSport. ‘We all expected United to go there in front of the crowd and close the gap on Man City and Arsenal.

‘Are they in the tile race? Based on what I’ve seen tonight, they’re nowhere near Arsenal and Man City. They’re not!

‘I think United fans will be coming away disappointed. Even though they were 2-0 down, that will feel like a defeat. That’s two big points dropped against a side that don’t have a manager.’

The result will certainly be a setback for the Red Devils, who will need to regroup and bounce back if they are to keep their title hopes alive.
