STACH DOES IT AGAIN | Forest 0-1 Leeds Reaction + Brentford Preview

Leeds, That! - A Leeds United Fan Podcast

Show Notes

Anton Stach curls in an 88th minute free kick at the City Ground and Leeds start the season with three points, a clean sheet, and their first top-flight win at Forest since 1971/72.

We get into the goal, the three debutants, and whether Farke actually planned to win it from a set piece. Plus: does a tennis background make you a better free kick taker? Stach's dad is the voice of tennis in Germany and once told his own son to stop embarrassing him live on air.

Then it's back to Nottingham on Tuesday for the cup, and a look at Brentford, who put four goals' worth of chances past Spurs and are coming to Elland Road.

Elsewhere: Hull turn over Man United, Spurs spend £228m and lose 3-0, and Sandro Tonali finds row Z.

Five games, five without defeat, and somehow it feels flat. Leeds ground out a goalless draw with Palace to stay unbeaten, but this was nothing like the Newcastle night. Two shots on target.
