Okafor’s brace set the tone for a result that had long eluded Leeds. He was clinical in the decisive moments and proved the difference.

Afterwards, Daniel Farke praised his side’s discipline and the cool finishing that sealed the upset. He highlighted the importance of taking chances at Old Trafford, with Okafor at the heart of it.

Ekitike was not alone. Sevilla winger Ruben Vargas, Okafor’s Switzerland teammate, posted a fire emoji, while Gabi Gudmundsson, Anton Stach, loanee Largie Ramazani, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Pascal Struijk were among others to react.
