- FT: Aston Villa 3-3 Leeds United
Villa offside
21. Mings tries to thread a ball through the Leeds defence for Coutinho but the flag goes up.
Villa free-kick
23. Koch wins the ball... and somehow it’s a free-kick to Villa around 30-yards from goal. Buendia went down, but the Leeds man clearly came away with the ball first. Let’s hope nothing comes of this...
Leeds clear
24. The free-kick is overhit. McGinn and Digne combine to cross again but Struijk hooks the ball away from the box. Villa win a corner ball from the resulting throw.
VILLA CHANCE
25. Huge chance for Villa. Mings breaks free of Llorente, he has a clear header at goal but he puts it inches past the post. Should’ve scored.
Leeds attack
27. Good pressure from the visitors. Dallas, Klich and Harrison all see crosses dealt with by Villa. Buendia tries to break out for the hosts with a good turn but wastes the ball forward.
LEEDS HIT THE BAR!
29. Aghhhhh! What a move from Leeds. Harrison down the left, he spins back and plays James in. One touch and bang. 20-yards out and his effort smashes the crossbar. So close!
Villa level
31. Just seconds after Leeds hit the bar... Villa are level on the night. 1-1. Cash cross from the right to the feet of Coutinho who is completely free and he is just as accurate with his low effort as James was earlier.
End to end at Villa Park
34. Leeds and Villa trading attacks. A shot blocked by the hosts at one end before Buendia shoots wide at the other. Neither team sitting back.
