Manchester United required penalties to win the first ever club match at Dublin’s iconic Croke Park as they overcame Leeds United after a 1-1 stalemate.
Joshua Zirkzee, who appears to be putting himself in the shop window, opened the scoring for the Red Devils, slotting home after Bryan Mbeumo carved Leeds’ defence open from the right.

Leeds then equalised after former United man Dan James picked up a loose ball, threading Brenden Aaronson through to finish.
There were no goals after the break which forced penalties, and after new man Youri Tielemans scored and captain Bruno Fernandes shockingly went wide, James Justin missed the crucial penalty to allow Noussair Mazraoui to get the glory moment and fire in the winning spot-kick.
