Last weekend, Southampton secured promotion by edging out Leeds United, triumphing over Daniel Farke’s team with a 1-0 victory in the Championship play-off final at Wembley.
Southampton has taken another jab at Leeds United, reveling in their return to the Premier League after defeating Leeds 1-0 in the Championship play-off final. Six days have elapsed since Adam Armstrong’s crucial goal secured their immediate promotion. The fixture, dubbed the richest match in football, left Leeds facing another year in the second tier, while Southampton relished the opportunity to taunt them.
On Saturday morning, Southampton shared a screenshot on X of a Spotify playlist titled ‘Sounds Like Promotion’, featuring tracks like ‘I Predict A Riot’ by Kaiser Chiefs, Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’, and Endor’s ‘Pump It Up’. These selections were clearly aimed at teasing Leeds United.
This isn’t the first instance of mockery aimed at Leeds following their playoff defeat. Manchester United and England defender Harry Maguire, hailing from Sheffield, couldn’t resist a subtle dig at Leeds, posting a photo of Southampton supporters celebrating their promotion with the caption: “Hope everyone is having a fantastic Sunday,” alluding to the historic rivalry between Leeds and Manchester United.
