Transcript

00:00 Hello there, Lee Sobot of the Orchard Evening Post here from Ellen Road signing out after

00:06 a 4-1 victory for Daniel Farks-Weiss who bounced back in style from the midweek defeat at Stoke

00:11 City which he felt they definitely needed to do and not only did they do so, they did

00:15 so in style with a fantastic first half display really of really, really good attacking football

00:21 and the Weiss were given a standing ovation. At half-time 4-0 up following two goals apiece

00:26 for both Dan James and also Chrysenzio Somerville who was absolutely superb, pushing towards

00:31 a 10 out of 10 in our player ratings, not quite, 9.5 he was given but I think that's

00:35 fair enough, he was absolutely scintillating, his pace is just too much, not just pace but

00:39 skill and end product now, it's amazing how much he's come on in the last couple of years,

00:43 a serious talent, as is Giorgino Routier who didn't get on the score sheet but he was almost

00:47 as good, just fantastic skill and very, very creative all the way throughout the game and

00:52 of course Dan James who's always had question marks about his end product popping up with

00:56 a brace as well. Both him and Somerville could have had hat-tricks, they both had chances

01:00 to get a third goal and an extremely dominant first half display from the Weiss but in the

01:04 end 4-0 as I say, standing ovation at half-time and that was it pretty much, job done. You

01:09 felt they could have pushed on and got anything really, as it was the second half they failed

01:12 to add a single goal and it was Huddersfield who pulled the goal back, Milan Melie, a bit

01:15 disappointed with that one, failed to gather a shot from the edge of the box and it was

01:19 pretty much a tapping on the follow-up. That was 4-1, that's how the game finished but

01:23 let's be honest, the game was done and dusted at half-time, well even before that so Leeds

01:28 bouncing back in style from that disappointing defeat at Stoke City. It's a huge one next,

01:32 Leicester City away coming up next Friday night, massive game that, obviously this is

01:36 all about trying to chase down the top two but this was very much a step in the right

01:39 direction and sets them up very nicely for Leicester away. A very, very good performance,

01:43 Leeds United 4, Huddersfield Town 1.
