Leeds United winger Jack Harrison has praised his teammate Illan Meslier on Instagram for his performance against Southampton at Elland Road in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
The Whites have got the better of the Saints 1-0 at home in the league.
Junior Firpo scored the only goal of the match in the 77th minute.
Harrison provided the assist.
It was new head coach Javi Gracia’s first game in charge of Leeds.
The win will enhance the confidence of the Leeds players in their quest to escape the dreaded drop from the Premier League to the Championship at the end of the season.
Meslier played well for Leeds.
The 22-year-old French goalkeeper did not have much to do, but when called into action, he stepped up.
Like when he had to keep out Paul Onuachu’s first-half curler…
The youngster is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League and is a regular for Leeds.
The 22-year-old has made important saves for Leeds this season.
For the West Yorkshire club to avoid the dreaded drop from the Premier League to the Championship at the end of the season, Meslier will have to be on top of his game.
