West Ham United 3-1 Leeds United highlights: Rodrigo opener immaterial as Whites defeated at London Stadium
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Whites’ penultimate fixture of the season takes on even greater importance this afternoon following Nottingham Forest’s victory against Arsenal and Everton’s stoppage time equaliser at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
Leeds are without key player Tyler Adams as he continues his recovery from a hamstring injury suffered earlier in the year, while Hammers boss David Moyes is expected to ring the changes following Thursday evening’s semi-final second leg victory over Dutch side AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
Team news from 12:30pm. Kick-off is at 1:30pm.

Offside
52’ Assistant referee spares Rodrigo’s blushes with a late offside flag. Forward had run in behind and saw his attempt saved by Fabianski.
HT thoughts
McKennie’s been good, driving the team forwards, but the lack of control overall remains a concern. Rodrigo has been at it. Rest of the team could do with some of his composure in the final third.
HT: West Ham United 1-1 Leeds United
Still in their hands. Rodrigo’s opener cancelled out by Declan Rice.
Can’t be wasting those
45’ Big, big chance. Rodrigo dispossesses Zouma and runs on goal, chops back and plays it to Gnonto who miscues his shot. Ball falls to Harrison on the edge who drags it wide.
Into stoppage time
45’ Four added minutes. Forshaw holding something in the groin/hip area. Doesn’t look entirely comfortable but cracking on nonetheless.
