Give us your player ratings as four Leeds United players score in brilliantly chaotic Wolves win

Leeds United moved out of the relegation zone with a 4-2 win over Wolves in the Premier League at Molineux on Saturday afternoon as they claimed all three points in a six-goal thriller.

Goals from Jack Harrison, Luke Ayling and Rasmus Kristensen saw the Whites take a 3-0 lead against Wolves before Julen Lopetegui's side hit back through Jonny and Matheus Cunha to set up a nervy finish.

Jonny shortly went from hero to villain after his goal when VAR upgraded a yellow to a red card following his ankle-high studs up challenge on Ayling. The game was still very much on a knife-edge though until Rodrigo scored his first goal for the club following his two-month absence with injury to secure all three points for Javi Gracia's side.

Illan Meslier might have had some fault for Wolves' first goal after he rushed off his line for a headed clearance that ultimately allowed Jonny to lob the ball back into an empty net from 35-yards out. However, the Frenchman made a string of superb saves to keep Leeds ahead when it looked as if Wolves were going to turn things around.

Marc Roca and Weston McKennie struggled to control the ball in midfield somewhat as the American in particular struggled to get up to the pace of the game and win back possession for his side.

Wilfried Gnonto's return to the starting line-up paid off after just six minutes as he set up Harrison for the opening goal. The Italian would eventually make way for Kristensen in the second-half, a move that saw the Dane score seconds after coming on as he then showed his solidity in a five-man defence.
