Pascal Gross gets a second chance on the edge of the penalty area after taking too long on the ball, but his eventual shot is weak and Alex McCarthy scoops it up.

Brighton have had about 90% of the ball in the 10 minutes since half-time.

Southampton have a rare chance to get themselves up the pitch but they need to get back quickly as Jason Steele catches a cross and looks to set his side away on the counter.

Normal service resumes. The home fans are enjoying themselves.

It's the best chance Leeds have had in this second half. Will they get another one?

The only way they've looked a threat in this game is a long ball over the top or set pieces, they've really struggled to break West Ham down.

Marc Roca and Sam Greenwood are on for Leeds for the final couple of minutes, replacing Pascal Struijk and Weston McKennie.

Emerson makes a great block to deny Crysencio Summerville as he was about to fire into the empty net with Lukasz Fabianski stranded. Brenden Aaronson's follow up on the loose ball is wild swing and an easy catch for Fabianski.

The body language of the Leeds players out there suggest they know this is set to be a huge opportunity missed.

West Ham make a change as Jarrod Bowen is replaced by Manuel Lanzini for the final six minutes.

James Bree gets in the way of Alexis Mac Allister's attempted pass just as Kaoru Mitoma was setting off on another sprint down the touchline. Well read.

It's been all Brighton since the restart and the hosts earn a corner after Kyle Walker-Peters gets a touch on Mitoma's ball into the box, but Southampton just about get it clear.

Rodrigo makes a frustrated challenge on Emerson, flying in late after a neat spell of passing by West Ham down the left flank.

Emerson sends the free kick in but it deflects off a player inside the Leeds box and loops into Joel Robles' hands.

Romeo Lavia gets in the way of a shot but the ball strikes him in the face from close range and he's going to need a minute or two here.

Ruben Selles is consulting with his staff. He may not leave it too long before changing things a bit.

JB: Ings has been class today, pleased for him.

We're heading into the final 10 minutes, a huge 10 minutes in Leeds' season.

They ideally need two goals without reply because even a draw is not much use.

The 18-year-old Evan Ferguson will aim for his first Premier League hat-trick in this second half.

Brighton begin on the front foot, earning a free-kick which will allow Pascal Gross or Pervis Estupinan to whip a ball into the box.

It's Estupinan who takes it, but the referee soon whistles for a foul at the back post.

As things stand, Leeds HAVE to beat Tottenham at home on the final day and hope results elsewhere go in their favour if they are to stay up.

One change at the break, and it's for Brighton, as Facundo Buonanotte replaces Julio Enciso.

Away we go again.

Should be 3-1.

Leeds are caught on the counter and Pablo Fornals looks set to score but a last-ditch sliding block denies him.

Leeds, though, look a beaten side.

It is a nightmare for Leeds and in the stands several Sam Allardyce masks have been removed to reveal glum faces.

Leeds needed to win this - and the opportunity was there for them - but they've been a distant second best in this half.
