Leeds produce impressive second-half performance to cruise to victory over struggling Southampton as goals from Patrick Bamford, Raphinha and Stuart Dallas hand Marcelo Bielsa's side routine win at Elland Road

Leeds United cruised back into winning ways against Southampton on Tuesday night with a 3-0 victory at Elland Road.

After a goalless first period, Patrick Bamford quickly gave Marcelo Bielsa’s side the advantage with a well-taken effort into the bottom corner for his 13th goal of the Premier League season.

Southampton kept knocking on Islian Meslier’s door in the Leeds goal but efforts from Adam Armstrong and Che Adams couldn’t even the scoreline.

Leeds confirmed all three points as Stuart Dallas netted from outside the box following a great counter attacking move from Helier Costa.

Raphinha, who had been wonderful in attack for the Whites all evening, then added the icing on the cake with a deadly free-kick from 25 yards out.
