Huddersfield Town made it into the fifth round of the FA Cup, but Leeds United didn’t.

Huddersfield Town attacker Kasey Palmer has poked fun at Leeds United, after they crashed out of the FA Cup against Sutton United earlier today.

Palmer, who is on loan at Huddersfield from Chelsea, helped his side progress to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 4-0 victory over Rochdale yesterday.

He then was able to watch, as the Terriers’ Yorkshire rivals were beaten by non-league Sutton earlier today.

And when asked who he hoped Huddersfield would play in the next round, he took the opportunity to rub salt into the wounds of Leeds supporters.

Leeds were poor against Sutton, after Garry Monk named a much changed line-up.

The Whites’ fringe players failed to perform against Sutton, and were deservedly knocked out.

Sutton scored their winner in the second half, when James Collins poked home a penalty.

And things went from bad to worse for Monk’s side when Liam Cooper was given his marching orders before full-time.

Leeds will now concentrate on their Championship campaign, with the Whites challenging for promotion in the second tier.
