  • RESULT: West Ham 2-0 Leeds United

71. Dangerous ball into the area, Drameh glances a header behind him. Vlasic almost got on the end of it.

72. Lanzini yellow carded for pulling Klich down.

74. Aghhhhhhhhhhhhh. Big chance for Leeds. Ball drops to Klich in the area and he slams a volley towards the far post but Harrison can’t direct it in. It’s wide of the goal from inside the six-yard box.

76. Rice cuts in from the left, drills a cross to the back post. It’s just a little too high for Antonio.

77. Fornals on, Lanzini off.

78. Hjelde off, Summerville on.

79. Drameh booked for his first challenge... high boot on halfway but made no contact with Antonio.

81. Drameh with a crossfield ball to Harrison... West Ham steal it. Fredericks flashes one right across goal and just wide of the far post.

Leeds penalty appeal

83. Summverille delivers into the box, his cross strikes a Hammers arm... but a replay shows shoulder. Johnson it was. Appeal from Leeds but nothing given.

85. Fornals delivers low, Leeds clear. West Ham work it back to him on the left and Summerville gives away a free-kick.
