Leeds fans have taken to Twitter to heap praise on Crysencio Summerville for his display against Burnley’s Under-23 side yesterday.

The Dutchman stepped off the bench to score against the Clarets, while he also won a penalty which saw some drama arise.

Summerville won the spot-kick, and was keen to take it despite the fact that Sam Greenwood is the designated taker.

Charlie Cresswell could be seen telling the 19-year-old that it was Greenwood’s to take, but the teenager wasn’t listening.

Eventually, the referee booked Summerville, before Greenwood finally got the ball and smashed it into the back of the net.

It was an unsightly moment, although it seems to be water under the bridge.

After Summerville raced through and dinked the goalkeeper to get on the scoresheet, Greenwood was the first to rush over and congratulate him.

Impressively, the Netherlands Under-19 international now has six goals and eight assists in 15 appearances this season.

Summerville has shone since his £1.3 million move from Feyenoord over the summer, to say the least.

The win was followed by a trophy presentation in the pouring rain, as the Leeds prodigies finally got their hands on the Premier League 2 trophy.

A number of the club’s wonderkids shone, but it was Summerville who was the talk of the town after his action-packed display.

Let’s see what the Leeds fans on Twitter have been saying about the Dutchman…
