Leeds player ratings v Barnsley: Ekuban springs surprise as 26-year-old steals the show

Goalkeeper and defence

Felix Wiedwald – 6

Didn’t really have much to do, particularly in the first half. He even had time to collect a cap from a Leeds supporter behind the goal to shield his eyes from the sun. Made one decent save late on. Kept his seventh clean sheet of the season.

Luke Ayling – 6

A decent display from the 26-year-old, managed to keep Barnsley’s Harvey Barnes at bay.

Pontus Jansson – 7

Good performance. Was booked very early on but after that looked very disciplined.

Liam Cooper – 7

Solid. Looked very composed at the centre of the Leeds defence. Had a second-half header comfortably saved. Made one or two crucial blocks and tackles as the home side staged a late rally.

Gaetano Berardi – 7

Very good. Made one crucial block in the second half.
