While the title race has long been a two-way fight between Arsenal and Manchester City, the relegation battle involves no fewer than nine teams who are in real danger of finishing among the bottom three. It’s just the second win in 13 league games for Leeds and lifts the team from 19th place up to 14th in the exceedingly tight lower half of the table. Jack Harrison, Luke Ayling and Rasmus Kristensen also struck for Leeds while Wolves had Jonny, an earlier scorer, shown red for a studs-up challenge in the 84th minute and unsused substitute Matheus Nunes also got dismissed in stoppage time, furious that Rodrigo’s goal was not ruled out for a foul.
Leeds were in danger of wasting a 3-0 lead at Molineux on Saturday as the hosts pulled two goals back before going down to 10 men, but Rodrigo put the game away with their fourth goal in injury time.
Leeds have climbed out of the Premier League relegation zone with a manic 4-2 win at Wolves while Tottenham’s grip on a top-four place loosened after they threw away a two-goal lead to draw 3-3 at last-placed Southampton.
