 Packing Adams |
|
Description:
The travelling White Army pack their end behind the goal here at Adams Park, home of Wycombe Wanderers on August 15th, 2009. The United supporters sold out their allocation and were given two stands in the stadium by the Buckinghamshire club. Around 2,000 Leeds fans made the trip to see The Whites in their first ever professional game with Wycombe making up just under a quarter of the 8,400 attendance.
United were playing freshly promoted Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park. Jermaine Beckford made a welcome return after a knee injury and Andrew Hughes started in place of the injured Ben Parker. This would be United's first ever professional clash against Wycombe and it was Leeds who came close to scoring first with an effort from Jermaine Beckford in the first quarter but the strike went inches wide. Leeds were the dominant side throughout the first 45mins but the two sides went in all square at half time. United again started the second half looking the most threatening and it wasn't long before Leeds broke the deadlock, on the 61st minute Luciano Becchio struck a first time effort from outside the box which left the Wycombe goalkeeper with no chance and sent the United faithful behind the goal into raptures. Leeds looked comfortable for the rest of the game and coasted the lead to the 90th minute mark making it 3 points for Grayson's men and the third straight win of the season for United. 8,400 were at Adams Park for the match with the United following packing two sides of the ground. Leeds United: Higgs, Crowe, Marques, Kisnorbo, Hughes, Snodgrass, Howson, Doyle, Johnson, Beckford, Becchio. Subs: Prutton for Snodgrass, Showunmi for Becchio.
