Fulham chance
74. Another let off for Leeds. Fulham slide in behind - shot is dragged wide from a tight angle. Another warning.
Leeds chance
77. A good cross in from Kamwa on the right. He finds Dean in the box but his header flies over - Allen was behind and probably better positioned.
80. Into the final 10 minutes - Leeds have weathered the second half storm from Fulham it seems. Starting to look a little more dangerous going forward.
FULHAM CHANCE
83. Leeds escape... Dean heads off the line at a Fulham corner. The Cottagers then fire a low volley wide from inside the box.
FULHAM CHANCE
86. Leeds still level... somehow. Fulham get in behind. Low shot drilled at Caprile and the follow up is headed onto the bar.
Leeds pressure
90. United just can’t quite work a chance. Lots of the ball in the Fulham half but no opening - which sums up the second half.
LEEDS CHANCE
90+2. Huge chance for Leeds to steal it. Huggins finds Dean in the box - he curls a shot which forces a strong save. Just needed to find the far corner.
