Leeds United wins first Premier League return game, Enmecha scores penalties

Xinhua News Agency, London, August 18 (Reporter Ma Bangjie) Leeds United beat Everton 1:0 at home with a penalty scored by Enmecha.

Leeds United have the advantage in the whole game, but has been unable to score a goal for a long time. Until the 84th minute, Everton captain Tarkovsky moved horizontally in the penalty area and blocked the opponent's shot with his arms that were close to his body. After confirmation with the video assistant referee, the referee awarded a penalty kick. Enmeicha withstood the pressure and calmly took the penalty.

Everton, who had a weak performance in the whole game, did not have a decent shot until the 53rd minute. Their newly loaned Gralish made a substitute in the last 20 minutes, but his performance was mediocre.

Leeds United coach Falke praised the players' performance and resilience after the game. He said: "This is a top performance. We had a total advantage in the first half, with 12 shots, which is very good for a 'updated team'. I was worried for a time, because when you have the advantage but fail to score, you often pay the price. Fortunately, Enmecha seized the opportunity."

Everton coach Moyes expressed dissatisfaction with the penalty penalty. He said: "I'm really disappointed. I don't know what else he can do unless you cut the player's hand. To be fair, they (Leeds United) may indeed deserve the victory, but that's a very bad penalty."
