Leeds United secured their first away win of the Premier League season with a 3-1 victory over Wolves at Molineux. The win was significant for Daniel Farke’s team as they managed to secure all three points on the road for the first time since their promotion from the Championship.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who scored his first goal for Leeds, played a crucial role in the victory, leading the line effectively for the Whites. With this win, Leeds now find themselves in the 11th position in the league table and will aim to build on this momentum in their upcoming fixture against Bournemouth.
The result against Wolves could have significant implications for Leeds in their fight to remain in the Premier League this season. Taking points off potential relegation rivals, especially away from home, could prove vital at the end of the campaign.
Wayne Rooney expressed concern for Brentford in terms of their chances of staying in the Premier League this season, citing the departure of Thomas Frank and key players as contributing factors. This prediction should be encouraging for Leeds fans as they see Brentford as another potential relegation rival.
The win against Wolves also showcased the impact of Leeds’ summer signings, with three new recruits finding the back of the net. Anton Stach’s impressive free-kick, along with debut goals from Noah Okafor and Calvert-Lewin, highlight the promise of the club’s recruitment strategy.
Leeds will rely on their new signings to continue delivering such performances if they are to secure their top-flight status this season. The showing against Wolves should silence some of the early criticisms of their summer signings and provide optimism for the challenges that lie ahead.
