Leeds, a team led by Marcelo Bielsa, achieved a valuable 3-2 victory as a visitor against West Ham, which is fourth in the Premier League and was their executioner in the FA Cup.
Jack Harrison stood out with a hat-trick in London, a city in which the team led by the Argentine beat one of the five best teams of the current season, which had Manuel Lanzini as starter.
Leeds went into the break 2-1 up (Jarrod Bowen temporarily equalized for West Ham), at the beginning of the second half Pablo Fornals equalized again (7m.) for the locals but a few minutes later Harrison (15m.) returned to put in advantage 3-2 to the visitor.
Leeds reached 22 points and took nine from Norwinch, the last team in the relegation zone.
The victory had more merit since West Ham is fourth with 37 units and a few days ago eliminated it from the FA Cup after winning 2-0, also in London, with a goal from Lanzini.
In addition, Leeds had gone seven games without a win on the road in the Premier League.
In another Premier League match, Liverpool thrashed Brentford 3-0 at home, and became the new escort after overcoming Chelsea’s line, 11 points behind leader Manchester City.
