LEEDS SPEED IT UP
Daily Express
|November 28, 2024
A top finish to remember icon
SAM BYRAM, Joel Piroe and Dan James all scored as Leeds reclaimed Championship top spot on the night they saluted legendary Gary Speed.
It is 13 years since the Leeds star who wore the No. 11 shirt with such grace and distinction - tragically died aged 42.
Fittingly, Byram's brilliant scissorkick opener in the 10th minute came just moments before the Elland Road crowd rose as one to pay tribute to the former Wales ace.
Leeds manager Daniel Farke, below, only made one change to the side that twice came from behind to win 4-3 in Sunday's wild contest at Swansea.
James enjoyed three assists in that game, including one in injury-time for Willy Gnonto after a last-minute Swansea equaliser.
