Leeds United have confirmed their place in the 2024 Championship play-off final, moving them one step closer to an instant return to the Premier League.
Daniel Farke is looking to add a third promotion to his CV, with previous experiences at Norwich City guiding the way.
It was his former side that the Leeds boss had to overcome on the way to the final, taking on the Canaries both home and away.
A tense 0-0 draw played out at Carrow Road before the return leg at Elland Road, where home advantage worked in The Whites’ favour.
A quickfire first half saw Ilia Gruev, Joel Piroe and Georginio Rutter find the back of the net, sending the home fans into delirium while stunning the away team.
The Whites managed the second half, adding a fourth through Crysencio Summerville to allow for some changes from the bench.
Leeds now find themselves one game away from the Premier League, with a huge clash at Wembley Stadium ahead of them.
So with that said, here’s a look at everything you need to know about Leeds United’s Championship play-off final.
