It is the first humiliating defeat in 45 years. Manchester United lost to Leeds United at home.

Manchester United lost 1-2 to Noah Okafor in the 32nd round of the "2025-2026 English Premier League" against Leeds at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, on the 14th (Korea time).

Manchester United, which has been winless (1 draw and 1 loss) in the last two consecutive games, is in third place with 55 points (15 wins, 10 draws and 7 losses).

Manchester United, which switched to Michael Carrick after the replacement of Coach Huvain Amorim in January, was on the rise with seven undefeated games (6 wins and 1 draw), but only one win, one draw and two losses in the last four games. In the end, they failed to close the gap with the leaders such as Arsenal (70 points) and Manchester City (64 points).

Leeds, on the other hand, got out of the swamp with no wins (four draws and two losses) in six consecutive games by catching the "rampant" Manchester United. Leeds (36 points), ranked 15th with six games left in the EPL, will take a breather with six points ahead of Tottenham, ranked 18th in the relegation zone, with six games left in the EPL. In addition, Leeds has been amazing in winning Manchester United's away game for the first time in 45 years since 1981.

Leeds, which had been driven from the beginning of the game, took an early lead with Okafor's consecutive goals in the 5th and 29th minutes of the first half. Manchester United, which urgently needed a counterattack, poured cold water on itself in the 11th minute of the second half when Lisandro Martinez was also sent off for a foul. Despite the numerical inferiority, Casemiro's RBI high header recovered one goal in the 24th minute of the second half, but Leeds, who desperately needed a point, built a solid defensive wall the rest of the time to secure a 2-1 victory.
