Leeds extended their 100% record with a comfortable 2-0 victory against visiting Swansea to record a club-record seven straight wins.

Elland Road's biggest crowd of the season saw the hosts do the damage with second-half strikes from Jermaine Beckford and David Prutton.

The Swans had began well, Thomas Butler drilling a right-foot shot in from 18-yard but Leeds keeper Casper Ankergren was on hand to snuff out the danger.

Sebastian Carole volleyed a right-footed effort over the crossbar from an inswinging Jamie Clapham corner as Leeds responded but Ankergren was called into action again when Ferrie Bodde drilled in an 18-yard effort.

Dorus De Vries was forced into the first real save of the match when the Swansea man clawed away a Rui Marques header from an inviting Carole cross and you sensed the Whites were starting to impose themselves on their rivals.

Swans defender Angel Rangel fouled a flying Carole on the left wing and from Clapham's resulting free-kick Prutton's header was well saved by an alert De Vries.

Kandol watched his 20-yard strike come back off the woodwork as the half came to a close on a frustrating note.

The second half saw the home side press but Beckford had to wait until the hour mark to break the deadlock, drilling a right-foot strike into the bottom right-hand corner.

Within five minutes it was two as Prutton converted a low drive into the bottom corner from just outside the Swansea box.

Frazer Richardson fired wide of the left post from 12 yards as Leeds looked to add some gloss to the scoreline while Warren Feeney came of the bench for the visitors but was denied by a fine stop from Ankergren.

Andrea Orlandi and Thomas Butler both saw speculative efforts fly high a wide but the day and the points belonged to the Yorkshire outfit.M
