Stanley started well in the first twenty minutes and I think we surprised Leeds with our quality and intensity. It was a truly quality strike for the first Leeds goal. Stanley stuck the task well for the rest of the half with Toby Savin making a world class finger tip save to keep the score line at 1-0 at half time.
We continued to hang into the match but two more quality strikes saw us go three down.
It was good to see all our subs being given the chance to pit themselves against Premier opposition and two first touches produced the goal that Stanley deserved. New loanee Quirk got down the right and crossed for Leslie Adekoya to finish superbly to send the Stanley Faithful into RAPTURES!����❤️
The Clayton End were BRILLIANT and both sets of fans behaved well and sang and cheered their respective teams.����
The Stanley players should take a lot out of this performance for the forth coming battles in League One. Renewed confidence and belief should really help us in the latter stages of the season.
SO PROUD OF ALL AT STANLEY TODAY.
KEEP THE FAITH.
ON STANLEY ON.
