Follow all the action from Elland Road
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.
Leeds United vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton have only failed to score in one of their 12 Premier League away games so far this season (0-2 vs Brentford in October). No team has failed to find the net in fewer games on the road so far this term (Arsenal also once).

The ball gets powered into the path of Ferguson who flicks it back to Mac Allister. Moving away from his marker, he shoots well wide from the edge of the box.

BIG CHANCE! Harrison and Aaronson play a one-two down the left with the latter sending a cross into the box. Bamford and Summerville attack the ball but cannot get there with it going to the back of the box. Ayling arrives late and goes to shoot, but his strike is tame. Mitoma got back and put the right-back off his effort.

Ayling skips past Mitoma before playing the ball back to Summerville. The Leeds winger then plays a pass inside to Adams who has a shot, but his effort is blocked by Ayling. Even if he was not there, the ball was going well wide of the target.
