'Complete bottle jobs' - Manchester United fans rage after letting two-goal lead slip vs Leeds

Manchester United fans were in disbelief at their side's early second-half collapse at Elland Road before they stormed back to claim the three points.

Rodrigo's cross bamboozled David de Gea in the United goal as it looped into the far corner before half-time substitute Raphinha poked home from Dan James' cross to restore parity in remarkable fashion.

Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes had headed Ralf Rangnick's side into a two-goal lead at half-time as they dominated proceedings.

But despite looking dead and buried, Marcelo Bielsa's side got up off the canvas and staged a dramatic comeback that saw two goals inside 24 seconds.

United fans were left fuming as their seemingly unassailable lead was wiped away.

Arsenal and Tottenham's respective wins on Saturday meant Rangnick's side needed a result on Sunday.

While United looked to be on the ropes early on in the second half, they regained their composure to record another vital win in their quest for a place in the top four.

That being said, their inability to see out wins in comfortable fashion is becoming something of a concern.
