Leeds United fans absolutely loved an “infectious” post-match interview with Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter after their win against Ipswich Town on Saturday (23 December).
The Whites thrashed Kieran McKenna’s second-place side 4-0 at Elland Road, but supporters were in awe of the attackers’ interaction as Summerville handed Rutter the Man of the Match award.
Their closeness was on full display as goalscorer Summerville gave the Frenchman the honour for his sensational display which helped close the gap in the automatic promotion spot to seven points.
Both Summerville and Rutter have been standouts for Daniel Farke’s side this season and have formed an excellent partnership.
Summerville has bagged 11 goals and six assists this season while Rutter has managed four goals and nine assists, making the Dutchman the Championship’s third-highest scorer and the Frenchman the joint-top assister.
Summerville’s penalty along with Pascal Struijk’s, Joel Piroe’s and Leif Davis’ own goal secured an emphatic win which broke the Tractor Boys’ five-game unbeaten run in the second tier.
Leeds were naturally eager for a return to form after their disappointing 1-1 draw against Coventry City followed their harrowing 1-0 loss to Sunderland.
After the pairs’ exceptional display, fans have taken to social media to hail the “incredible” love-in between two of their finest stars.
In other news, Pundit claims it will be a ‘shock’ if Raphinha completes sensational Leeds United return.
