Sean Longstaff reflects on bright Leeds United pre-season after USA tour turnaround | OneFootball

Sean Longstaff says a simple focus on enjoying his football is underpinning a strong Leeds United pre-season, capped by a stirring comeback against Liverpool in the USA.

“On the pitch, I try make the most of it and show what I can do, just trying to enjoy it as much as I can. It seems to be going ok at the minute so hopefully that continues!” he told LUTV.

The midfielder impressed in the opening friendly against Wrexham despite a 3-2 defeat, then started again in a 1-0 win over Sunderland.

He began on the bench against Liverpool, who led 2-0 at half-time, but came on to help spark a 4-2 turnaround and scored his second goal of the summer.

“First half still had good bits but obviously probably the key moments went to them.”

“Then the second half, yeah, I think the ones who came on had nothing really to lose, just try to be as positive as possible. I think we had chances in the first half, that goalie made a couple of good saves and we put a couple wide, and then in the second half they just seemed to go in.”
