Leeds United Defeats Watford 2-1 in Championship

Leeds United secured a 2-1 victory over Watford at Elland Road, moving up to joint-top of the Championship with their sixth consecutive unbeaten match. The win was significantly aided by two early goalkeeping errors from Watford's Daniel Bachmann, who allowed Largie Ramazani’s shot to slip through his grasp and later parried a cross directly to Brenden Aaronson, who scored on his birthday. Despite Kwadwo Baah pulling one back for Watford early in the second half, Leeds maintained control of the match. Manager Daniel Farke emphasized the importance of not getting overly excited after the win, while Watford's boss Tom Cleverley faced criticism as his team suffered a fifth straight away defeat. The match showcased Leeds' attacking fluidity and Watford's ongoing struggles, particularly on the road, as they search for their first away win since the season's opening weekend.
