Leeds United 1-1 Crystal Palace highlights: Whites held to draw in final Australia friendly
FT: Leeds United 1-1 Crystal Palace
Game over. Spoils shared. Tour ends with a win, a loss and a draw.
Should score
90’ Right at the death, Mitchell heads down into the turf at the back post but it bounces over the bar. Let-off.
Trickling towards a conclusion
87’ Into the last couple of minutes. Intensity gone out of this one, headed for a draw it seems.
What do the last few have in store?
81’ Gelhardt fizzes one at goal from the corner of the box. Forces Guaita into a good save.
Marsch has also been booked.
Anticipate
74’ Llorente anticipates Ebiowei’s pass into the box and intercepts well. Could have been a second for Palace if not for that.
GOAL! Palace equalise 1-1
67’ Leeds don’t defend well after their corner breaks down. Ayew surges forward and slides across to Mateta in the middle. Simple stuff.
