As part of a rollercoaster first half, Boro went ahead after just seven minutes through Isaiah Jones who tapped home into an empty net after Emmanuel Latte Lath had been played in and clashed with Illan Meslier. Leeds, though, were awarded a penalty in the 13th minute as Anfernee Dijksteel took down Georginio Rutter on the edge of the box and an ice-cool Crysencio Summerville stepped up to convert a fine spot kick into the bottom left corner. Just five minutes later, Daniel Farke’s Whites found...
Daniel Farke’s side knew that even a draw would take them top of the Championship after Leicester City’s defeat at Friday night hosts Plymouth Argyle and that a victory would send them two points clear in the automatic promotion places ahead of Ipswich Town’s 3pm hosting of Middlesbrough. Leeds, though, ultimately left with nothing as an 82nd-minute strike from the division’s top scorer Sammie Szmodics condemned United to a first home league loss of the season, dealing a huge blow to the team’s...
NATHAN SALT AT OLD TRAFFORD: Manchester United made life hard for themselves but ultimately walked out with a 4-2 victory at Old Trafford from their clash with Sheffield United.
Man United beat Sheffield United 4-2 in the Premier League and here are how
The 18-year-old does not need a window into the psyche of the fanbase right now because he is one of them, born into a family that is Elland Road furniture. A rock steady character, moulded in part by his upbringing, the Leeds in Gray makes itself known from time to time. Going after Kyle McFadzean on Saturday after an off-the-ball block was one of a number of times the youngster has got right in the face of opponents this season. His celebrations of the goal against Leicester, before it was...
KIERAN GILL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: Bruno Fernandes scored twice to rescue an unconvincing 2-2 draw for Manchester United at Bournemouth as they dropped to seventh.
Fans have reacted angrily to the listing of tickets for the Championship season finale on May 4 on various resale websites, at prices ranging from £380 to £470. Leeds remain in the hunt for automatic promotion and though Saints suffered a damaging 5-0 defeat by leaders Leicester City on Tuesday night, the final game of the campaign could still hold huge consequences for either side's Premier League dream. Leeds supporters recently shared screengrabs on social media of their attempts to get their...
Man United drew with Bournemouth in the Premier League and here are how the players rated at the Vitality Stadium.
QPR can confirm their Championship status for another season if they secure a win in their final home game of the season tonight. Leeds, meanwhile, know three points are paramount for their hopes of automatic promotion and will do everything to ensure back-to-back wins are recorded following Monday night’s triumph at the Riverside Stadium. Speaking to the matchday programme, R’s defender Cook previewed the fixture: “Teams that come down have a huge budget and Leeds managed to keep a lot of their...
Leeds United owners 49ers Enterprises have made no secret of their desire to redevelop Elland Road and increase its capacity in the not too distant future. Chairman Paraag Marathe confirmed stadium improvements were high on the agenda when the American consortium completed their takeover of the Whites last summer and it now seems as though the wheels are beginning to creak into motion. That's according to a report by i, which claims the club have held fresh talks with stakeholders within the...
The Saints have sold out their allocation for their games at both Leicester City, on Tuesday April 23, and the May 4 visit to West Yorkshire. Fourth-placed Southampton have won their last three league outings to put pressure on the top three of Leeds, Leicester and Ipswich Town. Russell Martin’s men sit three points behind third-placed Leeds with a game in hand, but with an inferior goal difference. Leeds, though, are winless in three, just like leaders Ipswich, while the Foxes have won one of...
To say Leeds United supporters have got behind Daniel Farke’s promotion push this season would be an understatement. Elland Road has been sold out most weeks with fans snapping up any available tickets to watch the Whites in Championship action and loudly cheer them on. Leeds have managed to use that vociferous support to their advantage, too, going unbeaten on home soil over the course of the campaign, prior to last Saturday’s defeat to Blackburn Rovers. Elland Road might be one of the biggest...
