After defeating Bristol City on Friday night and witnessing Ipswich Town lose at Preston, Leeds United had a fantastic weekend. Kieran McKenna has talked about the race.
Leicester’s thrilling 5-0 victory over Stoke keeps them atop the standings and serves as a reminder to anyone who may have any doubts about their ability to defeat teams. They also appear poised to win the division by a significant margin.
The previous night, Leeds defeated Bristol City thanks to Willy Gnonto’s second goal of the year, which increased pressure on Southampton and Ipswich to replicate our outcome and maintain their lead in the race.
Southampton’s superb play continued as they defeated Rotherham 2-0. However, Ipswich has noticed a decline in their play in recent weeks. One indication of that was a home FA Cup loss to Maidstone.
Leeds is currently in third place, with Southampton in second place, after Harry Redknapp stated it would be folly to exclude Leeds from the battle for automatic promotion. However, Saints are one point ahead having played one fewer game.
In the promotion verdict, Kieran McKenna asserts Leeds United.
They are currently in fantastic form and are probably the favourites to finish second among Leeds, themselves, and Ipswich. However, in the Championship, anything may happen. On the last day, Leeds will host the Saints.
If Ipswich wants to contend for the top two, McKenna needs to get his guys off the deck, which is likely to involve many twists and turns. Leeds was in “incredible form” and “fantastic,” according to him.
According to Leeds Live, McKenna stated on Saturday, “Look, there’s 46 games.” We have only dropped four league games so far this season. Outstanding work. We are aware that there won’t always be bright days.
“We won’t have the necessary energy to be competitive every week if we use up any of our energy focusing on the teams around us with fantastic squads in incredible form,” McKenna asserted.
