Calvert-Lewin's disastrous debut

Leeds United fans unanimously criticized striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, when he played poorly in his Leeds United debut in the second round of the 2025/26 Carabao Cup.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's debut for Leeds United turned into a disaster as he missed three chances and a penalty.

In the early morning of August 27, Leeds United shockingly lost 0-3 to lower-league Sheffield Wednesday on penalties (the two teams drew 1-1 in regular time). Calvert-Lewin came off the bench in the 59th minute, marking his first appearance for Leeds United since joining the club this summer as a free agent.

Despite high expectations, the English striker was a poor performer. He missed three clear chances in the match, including a shot wide from just 5 yards out. Calvert-Lewin's disastrous performance culminated in his penalty miss.

As a result, Sheffield Wednesday won and advanced to the next round, leaving Leeds and their fans disappointed. Leeds fans were not shy about expressing their disappointment with their new signing.

Some fans even demanded that Leeds kick Dominic Calvert-Lewin out of the club early. Earlier this month, Calvert-Lewin joined Leeds to continue his career in the Premier League.

Previously, he was contacted by Manchester United and many other clubs in the Premier League. However, in the end, Leeds was the team that won the race to own the English striker, when they agreed to pay a high salary for Calvert-Lewin.
