“It is great for the team to stay unbeaten,” winger Aaronson said, “But of course we wanted three points today.

“It is tough because you are fighting the whole game to get good chances, because Man United have great players and they are tough to break down. So, you know, you get the chance to score, but then it is about trying to keep the lead.

“I think we need to keep this unbeaten streak going. It's going to be a tough game in Newcastle. We know that, of course. I think we are going to keep this confidence but not get too ahead of ourselves and we will be ready for the game.”

Leeds defender Jaka Bijol also said: “I am just a little bit sorry that we did not win at the end to make everyone a little bit happier, but it is what it is.

“I think we showed again that we can compete against everyone, so when we are full and 100 per cent healthy, I think we can play our football against everyone and hope to win at the end. If we will continue to show these performances, to improve the performances, I think we will have a good season ahead.”
