Aside from a couple of half-chances on the break, Leeds looked pretty comfortable throughout the 90 minutes but were forced to be patient for their opener.
Eventually it finally came in the 63rd minute as Joseph steered home a lovely cross from Manor Solomon for his first goal of the season, which will do him a world of good.
Leeds has won two straight games going into the season’s first international break, thanks to goals from Joel Piroe and Mateo Joseph.
Leeds were quite at ease for the whole ninety minutes, save for a handful of half-chances after halftime, but they had to wait patiently for their opening.
It finally arrived in the sixty-third minute when Joseph headed in a gorgeous cross from Manor Solomon to score his first goal of the year. This will be really beneficial to him.
Joel Piroe, a substitute who has struggled this season due to rumors that he was part of a player-plus-cash bid for Gustavo Hamer, secured the win with a superb finish on the counter.
After a hectic few days in the transfer window, Daniel Farke picked three of his four new acquisitions in the starting lineup for the match at Elland Road.
Ao Tanaka and Largie Ramazani were brought on as second-half substitutes, while Solomon made his complete debut in Dan James’ absence.
Solomon demonstrated his abilities without any delay, as seen by his assistance to Joseph, who had a polished first outing right away.
