5. A burst forward from the visitors... Dyce eventually has it on the edge of the area. He shoots but it’s deflected and up into Klaesson’s arms. Easy save.
SUNDERLAND CHANCE
8. First chance of the night... Dunne for Sunderland. Klaesson saves with his legs from a tight angle and he hammers a header onto the woodwork at the rebound.
LEEDS TAKE THE LEAD
9. Lovely goal. Summerville takes his time in the box after a Drameh ball in, out of his feet and curls the ball into the far corner. Goalkeeper no chance. Used the defender to shield the effort.

14. Ferguson gifts the ball to Sunderland with a loose pass. There’s a flick and it falls perfectly for Taylor on the edge of the box, he shapes to shoot but it flies past the far post. Lucky escape.
