In this sick duel between Leeds United and West Ham, the urgency was to quickly get out of the red zone. The Peacocks, who have not won since September 20, hosted the relegated Hammers who have won only once in eight days. And in less than three minutes, Aaronson opened the scoring for Leeds United, before Rodon made the break in a quarter of an hour (2-0, 15th).
West Ham, who thought they would equalize after a disallowed goal from Paqueta (34th), could do nothing and could only reduce the score through Fernandes (2-1, 90th). The Hammers suffered yet another defeat and were in 17th place in the Premier League before the difficult reception at Newcastle, while Leeds recovered and took 13th place before facing Brighton.
