Leeds Spank Burnley To Boost Fight Against Relegation

By Daily Sports on January 3, 2022

Stuart Dallas marked his 250th Leeds appearance with a stunning strike as Marcelo Bielsa’s side moved eight points clear of the relegation places with a 3-1 victory over Burnley at Elland Road.

Jack Harrison’s first Premier League goal of the season (38) gave the hosts the advantage heading into the interval. Sean Dyche responded by bringing on Maxwel Cornet at the break, and the substitute made an instant impact, scoring with a superb free-kick (54) to bring the visitors back into the game.

In what was a lively encounter, both sides pushed for a winner, and it was Leeds who eventually grabbed all three points thanks to Dallas’ curled finish 13 minutes from time and substitute Dan James’ stoppage-time header.

Victory sees Leeds end a run of four league matches without a win. Bielsa’s side stay 16th but move eight points clear of Burnley in 18th, who still have two games in hand on many of the sides around them at the foot of the table. (Sky Sports)
