Leeds United 1 Liverpool 1: Graham Smyth's player ratings as Marcelo Bielsa's Whites peg back Jurgen Klopp's Reds

LEEDS United struck late to seal a 1-1 draw at home to Monday night's visitors Liverpool - but how did we rate the performances?

Sadio Mane's first-half strike had last season's Premier League champions on course for all three points but Leeds hit back strongly after the interval and Diego Llorente bagged an 87th-minute equaliser.

Graham Smyth, the YEP's chief football writer, hands out the scores from the Monday night clash at Elland Road.
