Leeds United avoid falling into relegation zone after winning 2-1 at Norwich City

Leeds United took to air in their fight for permanence in the Premier League thanks to their 2-1 victory at the bottom of Norwich City, bottom and increasingly sunken, this Sunday in the tenth day of the English championship.

All the goals of the game came in a margin of five minutes.

The Brazilian Raphinha overtook Leeds in 56 with a left-handed shot, the Irishman Andrew Omobamidele (58) provisionally equalized for Norwich and in 60 the Brazilian-born Spanish international Rodrigo Moreno (60 ), with a shot from outside the area after an assist from Kalvin Phillips.

Leeds are back with victory after their last bad results, in which they had added a point in the two previous days. Last Tuesday he had also been eliminated in the round of 16 of the English League Cup against Arsenal.

Norwich, meanwhile, have just two points in the standings and have yet to win any game in this Premier League, where they now have the salvation zone, which is precisely marked by Leeds (seventeenth), eight points behind.

Leeds were able to avoid falling into the relegation zone, which they had provisionally entered on Saturday with Burnley’s 3-1 win over Brentford.

With their triumph on Sunday, Leeds are again positioned with three points more than Burnley, the same with which they had started this tenth day.

This Sunday is completed in the English first division with the visit of West Ham to Aston Villa.

On Saturday the teams that occupy the podium played.

Chelsea consolidated their lead by winning 3-0 at Newcastle.

They took advantage of the stumbling blocks of their closest pursuers: Liverpool (2nd) drew 2-2 at home with Brighton (7th) and Manchester City (3rd) lost 2-0 at home to Crystal Palace (13th).

This allows the reigning European champions to increase their lead over Liverpool to 3 points and to 5 over City. (D)
