Leeds Close On Premier League Return Thanks To Late Pascal Struijk Double
Leeds took a huge step towards a return to the Premier League after Pascal Struijk's dramatic 95th minute winner defeated Championship promotion rivals Sunderland 2-1 at Elland Road on Monday. Dutch defender Struijk was the unlikely hero with both Leeds goals despite only playing the final 20 minutes as a substitute. Wilson Isidor had fired Sunderland in front with his 12th goal of the season before half-time. But the Black Cats' chances of automatic promotion are beginning to fade as Leeds and Sheffield United pull away at the top of the table.
