Patrick Bamford says Leeds United's run in the FA Cup has been 'a welcome distraction' to battling relegation in the Premier League. The Whites progressed to the fifth round courtesy of a 3-1 victory over League One side Accrington Stanley at the Wham Stadium.
Jack Harrison broke the deadlock inside 23 minutes with a stunning strike into the corner of the net from range. Junior Firpo doubled the Whites' advantage just after the hour-mark, before Luis Sinisterra scored a third two minutes later.
18-year-old substitute Leslie Adekoya scored a consolation during the final 10 minutes, but Leeds comfortably avoided an FA Cup upset to progress to the next round.
