Leeds sink Derby from unlikely sources and return to Championship summit
Joe Rodon and Max Wöber stepped out of defence to score their first goals for Leeds as Daniel Farke’s side moved to the top of the Championship, ahead of Sheffield United on goal difference.
Given that Illan Meslier, Farke’s goalkeeper, was so underemployed he appeared in danger of hypothermia by the end, it is probably to safe to assume that Tuesday night’s engagement with a key promotion rival in Michael Carrick’s Middlesbrough will be somewhat tougher but Leeds still did enough to suggest they should not be underestimated.
