Rally Behind Meslier! Ex-Leeds Star Defends Keeper After Costly Blunder
Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier is under intense scrutiny after a stoppage-time error allowed Sunderland to secure a 2-2 draw, costing Leeds valuable points in their promotion push. Despite the criticism, former Leeds star Jermaine Beckford has come to Meslier’s defense, urging fans to support the young keeper. “He didn’t put a foot wrong until one mistake changed everything in the final seconds,” Beckford said. “Fortunately, he’s going to save us more points than he will cost us.” With a crucial match against Sheffield United looming, Leeds will need to regroup and recover after the international break.
