Leeds United: Whites see off Latics
A thoroughly professional performance from Leeds United saw the Whites earn their place in the second round of the FA Cup with a 2-0 win at Oldham Athletic.
United broke the deadlock nine minutes from half-time. Jonny Howson fired a sweet deflected effort into the top corner for his second goal of the campaign following some neat approach play from Snodgrass.
Substitute Mike Grella wrapped things up in stoppage time, firing powerfully home after good work from fellow sub Aidan White and Snodgrass.
