Leeds United returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over West Ham United at Elland Road on Friday, courtesy of early goals from Brenden Aaronson and Joe Rodon. The win marked Leeds’ third of the season, lifting them to 13th place in the table, while West Ham remained second from bottom after yet another frustrating night for new coach Nuno Espirito Santo, who is still searching for his first win since taking charge.

Leeds United got off to the perfect start, capitalizing on the visitors’ poor defending at set pieces to seize control within the opening 15 minutes. In just the third minute, Aaronson pounced from close range after a goalmouth scramble, finishing past Alphonse Areola, who had initially saved the first attempt.
