Leeds United secured a 4-1 victory over Newcastle United at Elland Road on September 14, 2026. The result continues a strong run for the club, which has lost only one of its past 13 league matches and has accumulated 35 Premier League points during the 2026 calendar year.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin contributed to the win, extending his scoring streak to five consecutive Premier League appearances at Elland Road. He is the first player to achieve this feat for the club since Mark Viduka in 2003. The striker has now recorded three goals in his last four league outings.
Following the match, Leeds manager Daniel Farke identified Calvert-Lewin as one of the best strikers in the league, noting his physical presence against defenders. Pundit Jamie Carragher described the performance as "unplayable" and "almost perfect."
Newcastle head coach Matthias Jaissle attributed the defeat to his side's inability to match the intensity, physicality, and duel behaviors displayed by Leeds. The performance of the Leeds forward comes ahead of the upcoming England squad announcement by Thomas Tuchel.
