Chris Sutton reacts to Rodrigo goal for Leeds v Norwich
Leeds United finally returned to winning ways in the Premier League against Norwich, but they needed some help along the way.
Raphinha opened the scoring in the second half at Carrow Road, but the Whites were pegged back immediately from a corner.
Thankfully, Rodrigo got a huge slice of luck minutes later – smashing home from distance after a bad mistake from Tim Krul.
Chris Sutton is known for his Norwich connections, and he was not impressed with the keeper and his efforts.
Writing on his personal Twitter account during the game, the BBC pundit nailed Krul for allowing the ball to slip under him in a simple one-word message.
“Shocker,” he wrote.
Deserved.
No matter how the goal came, Leeds simply deserved to win this one.
It wasn’t pretty by any standard, but hopefully, these three points can act as a catalyst to put a run of results together and start climbing the table.
This was also huge for Rodrigo.
The Spaniard has really improved in recent weeks, scoring the equaliser against Wolves and then firing in this strike to seal three points at Carrow Road.
With Patrick Bamford missing longer than expected, Marcelo Bielsa has needed someone to step up, and thankfully, our big-money attacker has done just that alongside Raphinha.
Sutton has every right to feel rage towards Krul though, and we wouldn’t say he deserves it, but we all remember the comments he has sent our way in recent years.
Raphinha mocked the Dutchman at full-time for old comments on the club, and every Leeds fan will simply be left laughing at his mistake – thanks for the points.
