Leeds United's 1-0 victory over Southampton at Elland Road has seen them move up two places to 17th in the table, with defeats for Everton and Bournemouth capping off a near-perfect set of results in the Premier League.
Junior Firpo's 77th minute strike sealed victory for Javi Gracia's side in a crucial relegation clash against the Saints. The former Watford boss was delighted with the win and although there is still room for improvement, the victory would have given the Spaniard cause for optimism that he can continue moving the club in the right direction.
However, it was not just the result at Elland Road that made the weekend so sweet for the Whites. Everton, who started the day two points ahead of Leeds in the table, lost 2-0 to Aston Villa at Goodison Park as the Toffees traded places with Gracia's side in the bottom three.
