A brace from Daniel Ginczek gave Nuremberg a deserved 2-0 victory at Elland Road this afternoon in front of just under 10,000
Leeds ended their one and only home friendly in defeat and faced a mountain to climb after just three minutes although Leeds protested long, hard and in vain that Luke Varney had successfully cleared Ginczek's effort.
Having seen Ross McCormack and Noel Hunt go close, plus some tasty tackles and flared tempers, the contest was put to bed on 69 minutes when Ginczek headed the German's second from a corner.
Undoubtedly we were outclassed and let's hope we can put things right in seven days time when Brighton arrive for our Championship curtain raiser.
