Leeds were off this weekend, but one of their players played in a big game nonetheless.
What a comeback! Massive win to get out from relegation. Another against goal just before half-time but the team did well in the second half. https://t.co/nNtEYI80ci

Yosuke Ideguchi came on in the second half and Cultural Leonesa came from down 1-0 at half-time to win 2-1 over Sevilla B to pull itself out of the relegation zone.
For me the most important thing about Ideguchi is that he's already a first option for De la Barrera and it won't be strange if we see him starting very soon.

It good to see Ideguchi playing well, even if we could have used him in at Leeds this season. It’s also good to see Leonesa get themselves out of the drop zone in La Liga 2, as the “partner” club in Spain needs to be playing at a high level if the team is to benefit from the deal. And, after all, All Aspire Aren’t We?
