Leeds come forward
6. But it’s sloppy. First chance Leeds have to get at Crawley, Alioski with the ball and tries to play in Costa down the left but he over hits his pass out of play.
Leeds starting to dominate the ball
8. Good couple of minutes on the ball for Leeds as they try and spread play. The pitch is a tad bobbly, but that’s not stopping them knock it around.
Leeds attack
8. A half chance, you’d say. Nice touch and cross from Poveda, but it is just a little high for Rodrigo who was peeling off inside the box. He can’t bring it down and it’s out of play.
Crawley free-kick
10. Davis gives it away… good crossing opportunity from the opposite flank. Leeds, though, hold firm and United win a goal-kick.
Leeds attack
12. Poveda nutmegs a Crawley man, he then plays in Rodrigo into the box but the striker is offside. Good work from both.
Crawley shoot
13. Nichols turns and has space in the Leeds half. He has no support so he opts to shoot, but it’s blocked and runs straight to Casilla in goal. Both sides are looking to attack, it has to be said.
Leeds attack
14. Better from Leeds. Rodrigo shoots, but his chance is blocked. It falls to Hernandez on the edge of the box. He flicks it one way, then another but his effort flies high and wide.
LEEDS CHANCE
15. Best one of the game so far. Poveda with it. Alioski slides him in and he drills low but it’s saved by the goalkeepers leg. Tight angle. Corner to United now…
Leeds corner
16. Poveda wins another after the initial corner was cleared. Bit of sustained pressure from Leeds now… as Rodrigo heads over the bar. Goal-kick.
