MOWATT MAKES TEAM OF THE WEEK

Midfielder acknowledged after match-winning performance...

United midfielder Alex Mowatt has been named in the Sky Bet Team of the Week following his match-winning display in Saturday’s 1-0 victory over Millwall.

Mowatt, who celebrated his 20th birthday on Friday, scored the only goal of the game at Elland Road with a curling free-kick on the 39th minute.

The Academy product played on the left of midfield and was influential throughout as Neil Redfearn’s side made it four wins from five and back-to-back Championship victories.

Redfearn said: "I thought he was the best player on the pitch with his touch and awareness. I thought it was a great free-kick.

"These young players are growing all of the time. There’s loads of scope to work with them because they’re talented –they’re young and they’ve got legs."

Alex spoke to LUTV straight after Saturday's game and you can watch his post-match interview by clicking here.
