Leeds United<\/a> have taken another step towards Premier League survival after beating Burnley 3-1 on Friday.<\/p>\n

Mike Jackson took interim charge of the Clarets at Elland Road on 1 May, but Daniel Farke<\/a> got the better of him.<\/p>\n

The Whites went off to a magnificent start against the Lancashire club and Anton Stach subsequently scored the opener with a sensational strike in the eighth minute.<\/p>\n

Noah Okafor added a second for the West Yorkshire outfit and Dominic Calvert-Lewin<\/a> then got a much-deserved goal a few minutes later.<\/p>\n

Loum Tchaouna\u2019s strike gave the Elland Road<\/a> faithful some pause, but in the end, the Frenchman\u2019s strike was nothing but a consolation for the visitors.<\/p>\n

Anton Stach monumental for Leeds United vs Burnley<\/p>\n

Stach had an action-packed opening 45 minutes against Burnley, and apart from finding the back of the net, the midfielder was pivotal in constantly putting the visitors under pressure without the ball.<\/p>\n

The Germany international has been an impact signing for the Whites this season and will certainly be one of the reasons if they survive the drop.<\/p>\n

In the second 45 minutes, Stach remained a steady presence for the West Yorkshire outfit in the middle of the park as Farke\u2019s team controlled the tempo.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old also had a few niggles at Hannibal Mejbri, which gave the home support more reasons to cheer for him in the game.<\/p>\n

Dominic Calvert-Lewin shows experience at Elland Road<\/p>\n

Calvert-Lewin was the architect of Leeds\u2019 second goal just after the break as he stole the ball and played a brilliant backheel pass in the build-up to Okafor\u2019s strike.<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old striker then got on the end of a loose ball after Martin Dubravka made a save from Ao Tanaka\u2019s shot in the 56th minute.<\/p>\n

Supporters at Elland Road made their voices heard as their hopes of avoiding relegation were all but guaranteed before the hour mark against the Clarets.<\/p>\n

Calvert-Lewin has had a bit of a dry spell in recent weeks, but his purple patch midway through the campaign was certainly monumental.<\/p>\n
