Leeds XI
Leeds United under-23s v Brighton: Klaesson, Sutcliffe, Hjelde, Cresswell, McCarron, Kenneh, Jenkins, Bate, Miller, McKinstry, Joseph.
Good raking pass
2: From Hjelde to Miller but Brighton survive. Miller is on the right flank. Bate is quite advanced, the no 10 almost. Jenkins and Kenneh in front of the back four. Hjelde and Cresswell the centre backs, Sutcliffe right back, McCarron left back.
Chance Leeds
6: Joseph curler from the edge of the box easily saved from a McCarrron break. Cresswell got away with a late one beforehand, judged to have just about got the ball. Held his hand up but no free kick, Joseph then clattered but again no foul
Good hold up play
8: Twice by Joseph up tops, has good strength, Bate sees a shot blocked. Still very early days for Joseph but he looks decent
HUGE CHANCE LEEDS
10: McKinstry cross from the left flashes through the box, Jenkins gets to it a few yards out but puts his attempt just wide, should be 1-0. Fine pressing by Leeds to win the ball down the left.
