Half-time brush with 'hairdryer treatment'

Brenden Aaronson and his Leeds United teammates were subjected to some halftime 'hairdryer treatment' from manager Daniel Farke on Sunday.

Leeds went into the break 1-0 down at the Stadium of Light, having conceded the only goal of an even opening 45 minutes thanks to Simon Adingra's finish.

The winger was played onside by an injured Joe Rodon - who was eventually forced off-and found by Granit Xhaka before curling an effort into the far corner.

But the Whites held their nerve and came flying out the blocks after halftime, needing just two minutes to craft an eye-catching equaliser that Dominic Calvert-Lewin put away.

Every Leeds player touched the ball as it moved from front to back and left to right, with the instrumental Aaronson working space out wide and crossing to his inform teammate.
