Ex-Bielsa striker scores magic goal

Patrick Bamford, who shone with Marcelo Bielsa a few years ago, scored a fantastic goal for Leeds in the Cup on Sunday.

Patrick Bamford has been very discreet so far this season with Leeds United in the Championship. The 30-year-old striker, part of his team during Marcelo Bielsa’s reign, regained confidence, efficiency and even genius during Leeds’ victory (0-3) on Peterborough in the FA Cup. The Englishman produced a world-class sequence with chest control and a masterful volley to deceive Talley, the Peterborough goalkeeper. Judge instead.

Leeds are currently 4th in the Championship, 17 points behind leader Leicester. This rank virtually guarantees them a play-off place in an attempt to return to the Premier League next season.
