Farke suspended for Sheffield United clash

Leeds United's dramatic 2-1 victory over Sunderland was marked by Pascal Struijk's late winner, which put the team at the top of the Championship by seven points. However, manager Daniel Farke will miss the upcoming match against Sheffield United due to receiving his third yellow card for celebrating on the pitch, a decision that has drawn criticism from former Leeds boss Neil Warnock. Struijk's performance off the bench was pivotal, as he scored twice to secure the win, while Ethan Ampadu, who had been playing in defense, expressed relief at Struijk's contributions. The victory places Leeds in a strong position for promotion, further emphasized by Burnley's dropped points. Farke's absence from the touchline next week raises concerns about the team's tactical adjustments against a direct promotion rival. The match against Sheffield United is set to be crucial in the title race.
