Leeds United v Manchester United Record
|
Manchester United FC
Founded: 1878Ground: Old Trafford |
Manchester United Football Club, founded in 1878 as Newton Heath LYR Football Club and renamed Manchester United in 1902. The club has a storied history, marked by numerous league titles, FA Cups, and European triumphs. Under Sir Matt Busby in the post-war era, they became a dominant force, winning the European Cup in 1968. Sir Alex Ferguson's tenure from 1986 to 2013 solidified Manchester United's global dominance, with 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League victories, and numerous domestic trophies.
Manchester United's rivalry with Leeds United is one of the fiercest in English football. Dating back to historical and regional tensions between Lancashire and Yorkshire, the footballing rivalry intensified during the 1960s and 1970s. Under Don Revie, Leeds became a top contender, and matches between the two clubs were often physical, closely fought encounters. The rivalry reached new heights when Leeds won the First Division in 1992, only to see Manchester United dominate the newly formed Premier League in the years that followed.
Despite Leeds' relegation in 2004, the rivalry remains, with matches often charged with historical animosity whenever the two teams face off in the league or cup competitions.
