Good cross, bright

FIRST CHANCE. 1-0.
10: Rutter with a lovely through ball for Summerville who controls and applies a neat simple finish in the middle of the box, fine pass from Rutter from the left, came after Byram had won the ball on the touchline, looked like the ball had gone out but play continued and that was that. Great start.
Leeds pushing on
13: Quickly hunting for a second, fine turn and pass from Rutter starts another attack, corner
HUGE CHANCE LEEDS
13: Free header for Rodon, low down, diving header, puts it wide, should have scored, six yards out, holds his head afterwards, looks to the skies, big chance. Summerville with the corner
