Junior Firpo has praised the stunning environment at Elland Road following their dominant performance earlier this week. The left-back turned to social media to voice his perspective on the team’s performance, the enthusiastic fanbase, and next steps as the Whites fight for Championship honours.
The atmosphere that resounds
The Dominican Republic defender couldn’t keep his joy hidden, as he posted: “Still thinking about that atmosphere yesterday night, what a game and what a group you don’t deserve less than that performance.”
Truly, the match was a magnificent show of united front and resiliency from Daniel Farke’s squad as they try to get back to the Premier League. Reflecting on, Firpo captures the emotional high that swept through fans and team members both.
Eyes set on the last game
The defender was fast to point out that the season isn’t over still. He said: “But the job is not done yet, this group is hungry for more so let’s do it once more.”
With one last game left- an away match against Plymouth Argyle on Saturday- Leeds still have all to play for. Depending on other outcomes, a win there might see them called Championship winners, therefore making it among the most crucial games of the year.
Firpo ends with humour
The Dominican player’s personality shone through in his post as he signed off with a bit of humour: “Yours Truly, the second-best left-back in the league.”
The laughing emoji that came after this line found just the right mix of humility and assurance. Fans were fast to flood the comments with words of support, many of them arguing the 28-year-old is too humble about his influence this season.
Leeds United set to achieve honour
The Whites’ devoted fans will be hoping the Dominican left back along with his squad can end the project as the campaign ends on a high note. The Elland Road spectators have been instrumental in driving the team ahead, and the defender’s remarks reflect this strong connection.
