Devilish Result As Leeds United Stun Old Trafford

The tie of the FA Cup third round produced the shock result as sleeping giants Leeds United rolled back the years to stun the competition’s most successful side as they humiliated Manchester United at fortress Old Trafford. Jermaine Beckford’s 19th minute winner saw the runaway League 1 leaders silence 75,000 United fans as they kept alive their hopes of a treble. Leeds are strolling in the league and are in the semi finals of the Johnson’s Paints Trophy. Simon Grayson celebrated a year in charge of the club he played for and has supported all his life. Under Grayson Leeds have proved to be almost unbeatable with Liverpool just edging them out of the League Cup and Millwall the only side to beat them in the League all season as they are 8 points clear of Norwich with a game in hand.
