Leeds United 4-0 Ipswich Town: Daniel Farke's men narrow second-placed Town's lead to seven points

  /  autty

Leeds emphatically narrowed the gap between themselves and the automatic promotion places to seven points with a crushing 4-0 win over Ipswich.

Pascal Struijk put the hosts in front with a simple header, and ex-Leeds defender Leif Davis turned a Crysencio Summerville cross into the back of his own net to double the lead with less than half an hour gone.

Summerville then won and converted a penalty before the break, with Joel Piroe ending a four-game barren spell shortly after it to add the gloss.

Leeds' first win in three games sees them move to 45 points at the halfway point of the season, seven behind Ipswich and 10 behind leaders Leicester ahead of their match against Rotherham later on Saturday.
