The Whites bossed the game from start, albeit they lost their way for a period in the 2nd half, when Everton eventually got their football on the ball.But came strong again in those last 15 minutes including overtime.
The basis of last night’s victory was a superb midfield trio of Ao Tanaka, Anton Stach and Ethan Ampadu.
Both Ao and Anton were superb,closing spaces, suffocating the Toffees, and keeping the ball in possession, they made sure the midfield belonged to Leeds last night.
But Ethan Ampadu took it to another level.
The 24 year old captain, was driven, leading by example, crunching tackles, picking up 2nd balls, passing it superbly, and the general operating proceedings in the middle of the park. Amps was the King
Leeds United have had great leaders over so many decades,Billy Bremner, Gordan Strachan, Bobby Collins, Lucas Radebe.
But Ethan is driven to be up there at that table, he is a leader of warriors, players who ll go to battle for Leeds United.
