  • RESULT - Leeds United 2-2 Brentford

69. Baptise off, Onyeka on.

69. Bamford on, Firpo off.

68. Ayling delivers a lovely ball into the box. James races into to try and get on the end of it, he clashes into Fernandez as he punches it away. Brief stop for both players.

66. Klich crosses but it’s deflected into the goalkeepers path, he went for the early ball. Bamford has been recalled to the Leeds bench. He’ll be joining us shortly.

64. Leeds has mustered a response, cross swung into the box and Henry has to deal with it. He heads behind but he’s not happy, thinks his goalkeeper should’ve come for it. Brentford clear the resulting corner ball.

Brentford celebration

62. Canos celebrated in the corner in front of Leeds fans, he was riling them up but a drink of some sort was aimed at him and he went down after it hit him. Jansson picked him up and he’s absolutely fine. Not what you want to see.

Brentford take the lead

62. Oh dear. Leeds are behind. They have fallen apart since the leveller, and they trail. Canos beats the offside trap and lifts the ball into the net. 1-2

62. Canos scores...

61. It’s a big one... ball is lifted to the back post. Meslier can’t get to it. Canos sneaks in and meets the header but it’s over the bar.

60. Ayling’s nose bleed is sorted and he’s back on and the game is back underway. A good rendition of WACCOE going around Elland Road, crowd trying to lift Leeds.
