Hearts 0 Leeds United 1: Reaction and recap
Key Events
- 3pm kick-off at Tynecastle Park
- Final pre-season friendly
- Championship season starts next Sunday at home to Cardiff
Bamford subbed
82: Chasing a ball down the right, a hooked clearance hit him in the face but he also grabbed the back of his left leg at the same time, went straight down to ground. Soon got treatment. Quickly subbed. Joseph on. Bamford did, though, walk off unaided and didn’t look too bad. Massively a case of fingers crossed here with Rutter already off injured
Chance Leeds
88: Gray corner, Gnonto header flies just wide, Cresswell was also there but Gnonto with the touch
CHANCE LEEDS, HUGE ONE
90: Gnonto cross to Joseph who should score but sends shot wide from close range
