Leeds United: ‘Ridiculous’ Glen Kamara and Crysencio Summerville shock at Plymouth Argyle
The Leeds United duo of Glen Kamara and Crysencio Summerville stunned Don Goodman with their lightning-fast first-half counterattack against Plymouth Argyle.
Following the half-hour, the Whites duo broke away, combining to advance up the pitch quickly from a defensive corner in just a few seconds. The Sky Sports commentator responded live during the broadcaster’s match analysis on February 17.
“I mean, it’s crazy isn’t it how one second they’re defending their own corner, the next second they’re on the counter,” Goodman stated at 1:03 PM. Hearts in mouths play, desperate defence from Plymouth. Mikel Miller has put forth a significant challenge.”That challenge there is enormous, and here it is, Kamara and Summerville, just the two of them against the rest look.”
Analyst Gary Weaver concurred, saying that the squad “needs a team who can hurt any team on the counter attack.”

Since the beginning of 2024, the Whites have been in unbelievable form, and Daniel Farke presently has so many players playing at their very best.
While Kamara stepped into the starting lineup when Archie Grey was transferred to right-back and has never looked back, it is hardly surprising that Summerville was engaged in the rapid combinations. The Dutchman is one of the stars of the Championship and has hardly put a foot wrong in weeks.
The manager has an abundance of riches, with squad options recently replacing an established starting XI and actually helping Leeds United.
Patrick Bamford reacted to a run of starts since the New Year with five goals, while Ilia Gruev has been excellent when Ethan Ampadu drops into defence to cover for Pascal Struijk.
At Home Park, it was Willy Gnonto who gave the Whites the lead with his fifth goal of the season. Since taking over for Dan James, Gnonto has been on fire.
This season, Leeds United is poised to return to the Premier League thanks to the leadership of Daniel Farke.
In spite of this, Leeds entered the game 12 points behind Leicester City in first place, and Southampton had surpassed them with a victory at West Brom the previous evening. This is a testament to the record-breaking character of this Championship season.
Despite the fact that the team has been shocking Goodman and others for a while, there is still no assurance that it will be good enough for automatic promotion.
Following their halftime break, the Whites were noticeably less spectacular. The home team made things tough when the score was 1-0, but Georginio Rutter eventually added a second goal.
