Benjamin Sesko, with 5 aerial duels won. Next: Matheus Cunha 2, Patrick Dorgu 2.

Benjamin Sesko dominated the air for Manchester United with 5 aerial duels won, more than doubling Matheus Cunha and Patrick Dorgu. That aerial presence was the main release valve in a 1–1 draw.

**Which Leeds United player played the most passes leading to a shot?**

Anton Stach, with 4 key passes. Next: Pascal Struijk 1, Brenden Aaronson 1.

Anton Stach spearheaded Leeds United's attack with 4 key passes. With Pascal Struijk and Brenden Aaronson managing just 1 each, chance creation in the 1–1 draw relied almost entirely on Anton Stach.

### How is the rating calculated?

The rating measures a single match: what the player produced against what they cost, compared with the average for their position in that league and season, and adjusted by position (a 70 for a forward is as hard to get as a 70 for a defender). A normal match is around 50, 70 is already very good and only one in a hundred goes above 80. It is not the NVP, which ranks the whole season.
