Goalscorer Elanga enjoys Man Utd revenge after being hit by missile at Leeds | OneFootball

Manchester United attacker Anthony Elanga was hit by an object after celebrating Fred's second half strike against Leeds.

United raced into a first half two-goal lead thanks to captain Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes.

But their lead quickly evaporated in the second half as Leeds scored two within 60 seconds of each other.

Elanga as well as Fred were brought on for Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard in order to change United's fortunes. And they did.

Fred finished off a sweeping counter attack to restore United's lead and strengthen their grip on fourth place.

And as United's players celebrated the thumping finish, Elanga was hit by an vape-looking object coming from the stands.

United's medical team attended to the teenager and after a quick check over he was cleared to play the rest of the game.

Elanga grabbed United's fourth of the game, getting himself some justice as well as killing off the game.

After slipping the ball underneath Illan Meslier, Elanga ran behind the goal putting one finger to his lips before finishing his celebration with a knee slide.

Leeds left-back Junior Firpo also went in on Elanga with a strong challenge late on, sparking some pushing and shoving from both sets of players.
