00:00Leeds United have shown remarkable resilience in recent matches,
00:05delivering a crucial turnaround under Daniel Farker after a difficult start to the season.
00:11The White salvage a 3-3 draw against Liverpool,
00:14coming back from 2-0 and 3-2 deficits to earn a point in front of a ferocious Ellen Road.
00:21This followed a crucial 3-1 victory over Chelsea,
00:25a result that lifted Leeds out of the relegation zone with 15 points from 15 games.
00:32Farker's side has been a free-fall prior to these results,
00:35suffering six defeats in seven, losing to Brighton, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and Manchester City.
00:40Morale was low and speculation about the manager's future was rife.
00:45Yet the recent performances have highlighted Leeds' fighting spirit, team cohesion and tactical adaptability.
00:51Goals from Carvet Lu in Anton Stack and Tonaka.
00:55Across the two matches, underline the team's collective contribution and resilience under pressure.
01:02Farker praises players' determination after the draw with Liverpool,
01:05noting the team's refusal to accept defeat and their ability to respond to adversity.
01:10Find the answer and try to find good solutions.
01:14And then to come back also in this way after being too nulled down and to equalise the game was,
01:19yeah, of course outstanding.
01:21Feeling a bit over-motivated then, 2-2, 80s minute, we stepped out of our block in the pressing
01:27and without the trigger it allowed them also, has the top-class side to score the third goal.
01:32But again, then to come again back and find another answer and to equalise this game,
01:39it's just a point and of course it's just one point for the table,
01:41but the Leeds should be really, really proud of themselves and can take lots of confidence and lots of belief out of this whole game.
01:48With confidence restored and performances improving, Leeds now approach a critical stretch in the schedule.
01:57The next travel to Brentford, host Crystal Palace and finish the year at Sunderland.
02:01If Farker's men maintain their resilience and belief, they could continue their climb away from the relegation zone,
02:09proving that the club's faith in the manager may yet be rewarded.
