The Leeds United machine continues to go through the gears as we head into the business end of the season. The Whites ripped Swansea City apart on Tuesday night, cruising to an emphatic 4-0 victory.
Crysencio Summerville, Joel Piroe and Wilfried Gnonto (2) netted to ease United to a seventh straight Championship win. Victory nudged the Whites up to second in the standings after Southampton suffered a surprise defeat at Bristol City.
It means the Saints are now third but with a game in hand over United, who are two points ahead of them. Here is what the national media made of the Whites’ latest win.
Ruthless Leeds went double Dutch to secure a magnificent seventh successive Championship triumph in Swansea and move into the second automatic promotion place.
Crysencio Summerville, with his 16th of the season, and former Swansea star Joel Piroe gave Leeds a flying start as they both scored in the opening 10 minutes of a one-sided affair that equalled Leeds’ biggest win of the season against promotion rivals Ipswich.
