Erik ten Hag paid a compliment to Leeds United's performance during Sunday's competitive clash at Elland Road, their caretaker manager Michael Skubala has confirmed.
United ran out 2-0 winners in West Yorkshire after two goals inside five minutes from Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho. A much-changed Reds defence absorbed a huge amount of pressure from Leeds, who harnessed a fervent atmosphere to press and harry Ten Hag's side from the off.
But a combination of resilient defending and a lack of quality in the final third saw 80 minutes pass without a goal before the decision to move Rashford central once again paid instant dividends, the in-form forward glancing a Luke Shaw cross past Illan Meslier in the Whites goal.
