Jack Harrison reaction

Leeds’ Jack Harrison, speaking to Sky Sports: “Delighted to get a hat-trick. It is an amazing feeling to score and when you get three even better. I am just really happy to take part in the win.

“The last week we have been working super hard after the defeat against West Ham in the FA Cup. We wanted to show a different side to us. We were able to control the game a bit and get three points.

“We have been really unfortunate with injuries but against adversity we always work hard. The young lads have done that coming in and shown their talent. It has been good to come through a tough period.

“Hopefully we can go on a good run of form between now and the end of the season.”
