Ralf Rangnick introduced Anthony Elanga and Fred in the 60th minute while the score was tied at 2-2. Both players ended up having a huge impact on the game. The duo scored one goal each to ensure Manchester United returned to Old Trafford with all three points.
Paul Scholes claims the tactician deserves praise for his influential changes in the match. He told Premier League Productions:
Leeds gave Manchester United a huge scare by scoring twice within a minute shortly after the restart to cancel the Red Devils’ two-goal lead from the first half. The visitors eventually got the upper hand by scoring two vital late goals that decided the game.
Reacting to their victory, Ralf Rangnick hailed his players for stepping up to plate in what was indeed a rollercoaster ride at Elland Road. He told reporters:
What’s next for Ralf Rangnick and Manchester United?
After picking up a vital win in the Premier League at the weekend, the Red Devils will switch their focus to Champions League football this midweek. They are scheduled to take on Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their round of 16 clash at the Wanda Metropolitano on Wednesday.
United then return to Premier League action on Saturday, where they will lock horns with Watford in their 27th league game of the season. It remains to be seen how United fare in their two fixtures.
