Southampton vs Leeds United highlights: Bamford goes off injured as Rodrigo hits double
HT: Southampton 0-0 Leeds
Bamford injury and the VAR review for Llorente’s last-ditch tackle the only talking points from that half. Dan James on at the half-hour mark with the best chance for the visitors.
Yellow Harrison
42’ Intensity of this one falling victim to the weather you suspect. All getting a bit laboured as we approach half-time. A few lazy passes, tackles, clearances from both sides. Free-kick to Southampton near the touchline, Harrison booked for clipping Bella-Kotchap’s ankles.
On a plate
36’ CHANCE! Leeds players queuing up at the back post from a corner to get on the end of Rodrigo’s flick-on. Kristensen and James get in the way of each other and somehow the ball stays out.
