Thought I would pop by to share the joy; what a night! Oddly for me, beforehand, this was the game I was least worried about over the last month. I have seen Sunderland in the flesh several times this season; recently at Derby and they were very fortunate against what is a dire Derby team.
Would have been content with a draw, but OMG, talk about getting an old man out of his seat! Still can't find the cat!
Did anyone catch the stat before the game started? We are 13 points ahead of where we were in our league winning season. Our points in that season would have us sitting 5th presently.
First time Farke really showed his emotion pitch side as well.
Oh the paradox of swapping unbridled joy of the EFL for the likely disappointment of the EPL, though I think we would be ok if we make it.

Good to hear from you Ani! Great result, excellent resilience and endeavour in the second half, and great game management from the gaffer. Excellent, exciting result!

Interesting post Ani and good also to see you regularly in Leeds Live matchday chat.
Yep the Leeds Bielsa Champo title season, from memory Leeds were a tad shaky in Jan and Feb.
But it was a King Pablo inspired last 10 matches when Leeds won 9 of them that saw Leeds race away to Championes finish line on a high 93 points ( 10 points clear of 2nd)

A finish like that season will do nicely.
