Following a Friday evening loss for Leeds United to Queens Park Rangers, Leicester City’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall couldn’t resist a little dig at their rivals. The Foxes, having secured their promotion to the Premier League with a convincing 4-0 win, now sit four points ahead of Leeds at the top of the table with just one game left for the Whites.
The battle between the two clubs has been intense throughout the 2023/24 season, both eager to make a return to the top flight of English football. Despite Leeds winning all their encounters during the season, Dewsbury-Hall took a playful jab after their latest defeat, sharing a clip of Leeds’ Georginio Rutter praising his team back in February with a thinking emoji. Even the official Leicester club account got in on the action, referencing the Kaiser Chiefs song “I Predict a Riot” that played after Leeds’ loss to Daniel Farke’s side.
As Leeds gears up to face Southampton in their final game of the season, Ipswich Town lurks closely behind in third place, level on points with Leeds and with a game in hand. The race for promotion remains tight as the season draws to a close.
