After losing back to back Championship games last season against Leeds United, Derby County got the better of the Whites in the play–off semi-finals.

Last night the two clubs were in action at under-23 level, and once again it was Derby celebrating.

Under-23 matches do not usually garner much attention, but some scorelines stand out more than others.

This wasn’t a narrow win for the Rams. Derby thrashed Leeds 7-1 .

Mason Bennett, one of the Derby players involved in the recent drink drive scandal was in action and got on the scoresheet for the Rams.

Derby were 7-0 up at one stage before Leeds bagged a late consolation.

Leeds’ under-23 side has been pretty good this season up to this point. This was a major shock to the system, although big scorelines can be common at youth level.

Leeds hammered Watford earlier in the season, despite the Hornets’ previously respectable record.

Derby fans took great pleasure in the scoreline and had plenty to say on social media…
