There can be no talk of Leeds United blowing the title race open but there's no doubt they made a statement with their performance in the victory over Leicester City.
Daniel Farke's men caused real problems for the Foxes, took a deserved lead and then showed their defensive steel to see out a tense final period and celebrate three points. Leicester have been on a tear in the Championship and had lost just one game prior to this, all the way back at the start of September. They could have little argument with this result, however, and although they hit the bar with a first half wonderstrike they so rarely looked likely to cut Leeds open.

He was barely given a sniff as Ampadu and Leeds restricted him and stopped the playmaker from making plays.
