The young midfielder scored the winner against Norwich last weekend.
Former Leeds United head coach Neil Redfearn has been commenting on the recent win Over Norwich City, and, in particular, the performance of Ronaldo Vieira.
Leeds moved to sixth in the Championship table prior to the international break with a stunning 3-2 win over Norwich City.

With the tie locked at 2-2, young midfielder Ronaldo Vieira took on a strike from distance that skittled beyond Northern Ireland goalkeeper Michael McGovern in the Norwich goal.
It was a tremendous strike and Redfearn praised Vieira for taking the chance, and highlighted what he felt it shows about this current Leeds team:
Former Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn
“It was a superb strike. The goalkeeper didn’t cover himself in glory but the fact that Ronaldo Vieira had the confidence to take that shot, deep into injury time, got Leeds United the points.”
“You can see that Leeds are never going to give up on getting three points and that’s a really good trait to have.”
There is certainly an element of not backing down to the current Leeds team. Their performances have been resolute and strong, even when it looked like defeat was on its way, and it is a quality Leeds fans have been missing for some time.

The energy and depth in the squad provided by such young talent as Vieira has played a major part in the rejuvenation of Leeds under Monk over the past two months.
Leeds fans will hope it continues after the international break.
