LEEDS CHANCE
85. United break forward... Miller takes a touch and turns on the edge of the box before firing a low shot inches wide of the far post.
Brilliant Leeds
84. They’re seeing this out perfectly now. The away ends is giving it the ‘ole’s’ as the home fans head for the exit. They killed Oldham’s momentum completely with that third.
LEEDS RESTORE TWO-GOAL CUSHION
80. That will do. Two goal cushion instantly restored. Bate takes his time in the box and picks out the run of Dean. He shoots and it’s saved before falling into the net. Might be an own goal but he’ll claim it.
Oldham pull one back
79. Leeds static at the back. Dearnley loses his man and is one on one with Klaesson before slotting home. Test for Leeds now.
Oldham attack
74. Fage runs forward for Oldham and shoots from distance. It takes one bounce and is caught by Klaesson. Bloke sat in front shouts: “Ooooooh. We had a shot.” Sums up the hosts evening.
OLDHAM CHANCE
72. A look at goal for the hosts... they attack down the right. Whelan gets into the box but he can only drag his effort low and wide of Klaesson’s goal.
LEEDS CHANCE
71. Chance Leeds... free-kick taken short before it’s swung in. McGurk sneaks in unmarked at the back stick and volleys but Leutwiler beats it away. Dean then sees a shot blocked.
