Man Utd held to goalless draw by Leeds after Burnley thrash Wolves

Manchester United were held to a disappointing goalless draw by stubborn Leeds United in a Premier League clash on Sunday.

The game was of very few chances, with the best chance being a freekick by Marcus Rashford.

The point takes the Ole Gunner Solskjaer team to 67 points, 10 points behind leaders Manchester City at the summit of the table.

City will be crowned champions next weekend if the Pep Guardiola side beat Crystal Palace on Saturday and the Red Devils lose at Liverpool on Sunday.
