The Whites named an unchanged lineup from the one that slumped to a 2-0 defeat against Brighton last weekend, and despite some initial scepticism from supporters, Marcelo Bielsa s decision looked to be vindicated early on when Stuart Dallas gave the home side a 13th minute lead with his eighth goal of the season.

Son Heung-Min equalised for Spurs partway through the first half before Patrick Bamford finished to make it 2-1 minutes prior to the interval.

Record signing Rodrigo added a third late on to wrap up the points.

The result moves Leeds up to ninth in the table, as well as severely denting the visitors’ hopes if qualifying for the Champions League next season.
