Jack Harrison scored the equaliser in Leeds United’s 2-2 draw with Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday, making up for the own goal he conceded earlier in the game.

Leeds had arrived at Elland Road with plenty of pressure on them after Bournemouth’s 1-0 upset of Liverpool earlier in the day dropped them into the relegation zone.

They breathed a sigh of relief when Harrison scored in the 78th minute after a short corner from Wilfried Gnonto, giving them a valuable point although they remain in 19th place.

The equaliser came after Harrison, under pressure from Solly March, had put the ball into his own net in the 61st minute.

Alexis Mac Allister had opened the scoring for Brighton in the 33rd minute heading in his ninth goal of the season.

Patrick Bamford then scored his 49th goal overall for Leeds in the 40th minute, when his strike from the edge of the box was deflected and went in off the underside of the crossbar.

Brighton, who arrived with a club-record 11 Premier League wins already this season, are seventh in the table on 39 points.

Gross tries to play a one-two with Mitoma, running into the box with the Japan international attempting to chip it behind the Leeds defence. Wober is ready for it and blocks the path of Gross.

OVER! Welbeck should have doubled Brighton's lead. Mitoma flicks the ball past Ayling and finds Welbeck just outside the box. The former Manchester United man puts the ball through the legs of Wober and enters the box but fires well over.

Estupinan plays the ball into the middle of the pitch with Mac Allister dribbling forward. He has options on the left and right but picks Welbeck who rushes beyond the Leeds defence. Meslier is ready for it and runs out to push it away.

SAVE! Mac Allister's pass inside towards Welbeck is knocked into the path of March by Wober. The winger shoots straight away from outside the box with his bouncing effort palmed away by the goalkeeper.
