Manchester United extended their Premier League unbeaten run to 23 games after playing out a forgettable stalemate with arch nemesis Leeds on Sunday.
In what was expected to be a free-flowing game of attacking football, there was in truth little goalmouth action at Elland Road.
Marcelo Bielsa will be the far happier manager with his side now unbeaten in their last six matches (W3 D3), despite the fact that this run has included matches against Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and now United.
Ahead of kick off United fans staged a plane protest against the Glazer family amid a furious backlash to the controversial European Super League.
United were one of the 12 founding members of the breakaway competition last Sunday, before making an embarrassing u-turn just 48 hours later.
No goals at Elland Road means that Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City just need two more wins to be crowned champions.
As the clock ticked down Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher, on co-commentary duties for Sky Sports, hit the absolute nail on the head regarding the contest.
“This game’s been awful, hasn’t it? Jesus,” Carragher said.
“Stay with us, viewers, we’ve got a cup final [Tottenham vs Man City] next!”
Let’s keep our fingers crossed, eh!
