Boro went ahead after 30 minutes through Chris Riggott, after a Chritie effort rebounded of a Leeds defender. Danny Graham then came to the forefront, scoring two excellent goals before half-time.
Malcolm Christie made it four after 67 minutes and Graham got his third, making it 5-0 with twenty minutes left.
The rest of the game did not go so well, as with all substitutes already used both Graham and Stuart Parnaby limped off with injuries.
Team: Nash, McMahon, Davies, Wilson, Ehiogu (Bates 67), Riggott (Peacock 67), Morrison (Johnson 71), Parnaby, Christie, Graham, Taylor
