Leicester Falls to Leeds’ Late Blitz: Three Goals in Ten Minutes Seal Victory

Leeds United orchestrated a remarkable comeback against Championship leaders Leicester scoring three late goals to secure a 3-1 victory. Leicester initially took the lead through Wout Faes but Leeds leveled in the 80th minute with a goal from substitute Connor Roberts.

Teenager Archie Gray then scored a deflected strike and Dan James’ free-kick sealed the win in stoppage time. The comeback keeps Leeds in the Championship title race closing the gap to six points. Leicester’s discipline wavered and they suffered their second consecutive defeat.

Leeds’ manager Daniel Farke praised his team’s fighting spirit while Leicester’s Enzo Maresca lamented missed chances and emphasized the long-term nature of the title race. The win marked Leeds’ 2,000th in their history.
