00:00We're in New Jersey for the second game of Leeds United's pre-season tour of North America
00:05with a game against Sunderland at the Sports Illustrated Stadium.
00:10The two teams both lost their opening matches in this tournament
00:14so they'll be looking to record a positive result this evening.
00:25As they have the first goal and they have the first goal!
00:30Well, what a strike that was from Lucas Metchip.
00:34He just skimmed it across the turf
00:36and it was perfectly positioned to tickle the foot of the post
00:42and roll into the back of the net
00:44and in somewhat bizarre circumstances, Leeds United are in front.
00:56It carries into the middle and it's a great opportunity first time and second time
01:03and Sunderland make a bit of a mess of both frankly
01:07because that was a great chance.
01:11Metchip calling in the middle.
01:13Wilson to his right.
01:15Bogle goes in alone and almost comes up with a spectacular goal.
01:24Andy Goldwood's headed just wide.
01:35Picked up by Nonto.
01:37Play on.
01:39Ampfu into Peru.
01:40goes down.
01:41James!
01:42Shot on goal is saved by Elborg.
01:52Ampfu with a long throw.
01:55Flicked on by James.
01:56Into the hands of the goalkeeper, Elborg.
02:09Clear header there.
02:11But contact wasn't the best
02:14and that's the last action of the game.
02:17And Leeds United have recorded
02:19their first pre-season victory here.
02:22Lucas Metch's early goal
02:25from distance
02:26was enough
