Leeds caretaker boss Michael Skubala says they can be happy after their 2-2 draw at Manchester United.

Leeds were 2-0 up at one stage before the hosts fought back.

Skubala said, "Tough place to come. They are a good team. I'm really proud of the performance of the players. They worked hard. I thought we did enough to win the game.

"[We put] a lot of emphasis to be aggressive and not be passive. We did that really well.

"I think he [Wilfried Gnonto] is pivotal to the team. We're a team, we stick together. They stuck to the plan today."

On Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie, he added: "I thought they were good and strong. When they got yellow cards, professionally they saw the game out.

"They [Man Utd] have quality with the ball. We did really well without the ball. We have to respect their quality.

"They can be proud and we can take a lot. We have to go again on Sunday.

"I've just been busy with this game. That's up to the board. I hope the fans and club can be proud."
