Summerville settles seven-goal thriller to nudge Leeds closer to promotion
It is no longer in their hands but Leeds still retain real hope of securing automatic promotion after reclaiming second place in the Championship following a timely return to form on Teesside.
Given that Michael Carrick’s improving Middlesbrough are nobody’s pushover at the moment, Daniel Farke’s side needed to rediscover the ruthlessness that had deserted them in recent weeks. To the considerable relief of the travelling Leeds fans, Crysencio Summerville, Patrick Bamford and Wilfried Gnonto obliged with potentially vital goals in a thrillingly compelling game that showcased the second tier’s often underrated appeal.
