Luis Sinisterra scores again with Leeds for FA Cup

After more than four months, Luis Sinisterra scored again with Leeds United. In the fourth round of the FA Cup, Jesse Marsch’s team beat Accrington 3-1 away. Jack Harrison and Junior Firpo rounded out the victory. Adekoya discounted for the local. The Colombian started and was on the court for 69 minutes, when he was replaced by Rodrigo Moreno.

In the first half, the Premier League team took command of the game. He controlled the ball and generated the best chances. Sinisterra was involved in the game, in principle, from the left wing. The Colombian tried several individual plays to open spaces for his teammates. He even had a great mid-distance shot that crashed against the post.

In that search to generate spaces, Patrick Bamford threw himself down the wing and enabled Harrison, who had been entering through the center. The midfielder did not think twice and finished off first. Goalkeeper Savin couldn’t do anything after the shot hit his left post to open the scoring.

Despite the fact that Accrington tried to raise his lines, the lack of precision was his great enemy and he finished the first half with a disadvantage in the result.

Luis Sinisterra’s goal reached 68′. A Bamford recovery in midfield started a quick counterattack that caught Accrington off guard. Harrison charged down the left flank and made it to the end line. He sent the center, which was intended for the English center forward, but the Colombian arrived first and defined in a great way.

In less than a minute on the pitch, Leslie Adekoya scored her first professional goal. After a mid-distance shot, which tried to take advantage of the bad positioning of the visiting goalkeeper, he finished with a rebound. Quirk grabbed the ball and assisted the 18-year-old striker, who anticipated the defenders and finished with the goal at his mercy.
