Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored twice for Leeds United in a 3-0 win against Crystal Palace. His performance created a crucial six-point gap between Leeds and the Premier League's relegation zone.
The striker has now scored in five consecutive league games. He is the first Leeds player to do this in 22 years, since Mark Viduka in 2003.
Calvert-Lewin was without a club for most of the summer. Leeds, newly promoted, signed him in mid-August. The club has since become the perfect place for him to restart his career.
The victory was secured with a third goal from Ethan Ampadu. His long throws into the penalty area have become a key weapon for the team.
