After a first half in which both teams played attacking football but managed to cancel each other out, Leeds picked up the pace in the second half.

Leeds' new loan signing from Spurs, Manor Solomon, started on the left wing and showed flashes of what he is capable of.

He moved freely around the middle of the park and tracked back to help with defence when necessary.

Leeds came out for the second half with more determination to attack and in the 63rd minute Solomon cleverly went round two Hull defenders to cross for Mateo Joseph to strike home at the near post to give the home team the lead.

Their hold on the game was secured when substitute Joel Piroe ran on to a through pass to slot home what ensured Leeds got the three points they needed to move them within touching distance of the early division leaders.
