Ethan Ampadu was branded ‘Wonderful’ following his performance for Leeds United against Burnley.
Ethan Ampadu dazzled Adam Bridge with a “wonderful” shot in Leeds United’s defeat to Burnley on September 14.
The talkSPORT pundit responded when the Leeds captain sent a shot toward goal, only for James Trafford to tip it over.
It wasn’t meant to be for the Whites, who lost 1-0 to the Clarets thanks to an early blunder at Elland Road that led to Luca Koleosho’s goal.
Bridge praised Ampadu’s efforts during a live talkSPORT 2 interview on September 14.
“Gnonto’s got it back again, Gnonto’s on the charge, inside the penalty area, gets blocked, Ampadu with a shot and then upped over the top by Trafford,” according to him.
“A wonderful effort from Leeds United’s captain Ethan Ampadu and Trafford had to be at his best to turn that over.”
Ethan Ampadu is forced off for Leeds United.
