    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Preston keeper Dai Cornell is booked for timewasting

  2. Postpublished at 81 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Georginio Rutter flicks the ball on for Joel Piroe about 25 yards out.

    The forward's only just on for Leeds though and he checks back rather than looking to take it on.

    The chance goes.

  3. 'Game has become scrappy'published at 13:39 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Steve Eyre
    Former Manchester City coach on BBC Radio Lancashire

    The game has become scrappy and deadlocked, which suits Preston and they will be fine with it at 1-1.

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Nothing is being given here.

    The game has maybe dropped in quality in this second half but you can not fault the effort being shown by both sides.

    Could we have a late winner?

  5. YELLOW CARDpublished at 77 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Junior Firpo is booked for a foul on the halfway line and immediately subbed off.

    To be fair, he was going off anyway.

    Sam Byram is on for him and Joel Piroe is on for Glen Kamara.

    The away side make a triple change.

    Alan Browne, Ryan Brady and Layton Stewart are all on.

  6. Leeds 'starting to lose their way'published at 13:36 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Neil Redfearn
    Former Leeds manager on BBC Radio Leeds

    He’s had one of those days the goalkeeper (Dai Cornell).

    He’s done very well to get back to that.

    I thought he’d dropped it into the net for a minute.

    They’re just starting to lose their way a bit here Leeds.

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Preston win a corner down their left when Emil Riis somehow gets away with pushing Joe Rodon on the byline.

    The corner comes to nothing but Leeds would have been furious if they'd gone behind from that.

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Again, quick bit of housekeeping.

    This result would leave Leeds six points off second-placed Southampton and Ipswich.

    Third-placed Ipswich also have a game in hand on them, albeit it is at leaders Leicester tomorrow.

  9. 'Not the prettiest' gamepublished at 13:29 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Adam Pope
    BBC Radio Leeds commentator

    I think we all felt this game wasn’t going to be the prettiest and they (Leeds) would have to fight tooth and nail to get over the line.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 69 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    There is a change... But it's for Preston.

    Ali McCann, on a booking, is off and Ryan Ledson is on.

  11. Postpublished at 68 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Leeds have got Joel Piroe on the bench, along with a lot of other quality players.

    Their forward players are all looking lively but I wonder if Daniel Farke will just look to freshen it up and give Preston a different kind of threat to deal with in these final stages.

  12. Harsh booking for Rutter?published at 13:27 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Neil Redfearn
    Former Leeds manager on BBC Radio Leeds

    It’s not a free-kick but it’s not a booking either.

    His touch is a bit heavy which takes him into the challenge but I’m not sure that’s a yellow card.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 67 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Dai Cornell punches this Leeds corner away but the home side are straight back on it.

    Georginio Rutter looks to take the game to Preston but tumbles under next to no contact from Will Keane and the referee decides that's a dive and books him.

  14. Postpublished at 66 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Ilia Gruev has to have a bit of a fight with the corner flag to get his delivery in against the wind.

    Again, it's not bad but not quite good enough.

    Crysencio Summerville wins another corner for the home side on the other side though.

  15. Postpublished at 65 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Preston are having to work so hard here.

    This could be a long final 25 minutes for them.

    Corner for Leeds...

    Crysencio Summerville takes the free-kick for Leeds and whips it into a good area but nobody can get anything on it.

  17. Leeds 'need to keep plugging away'published at 13:22 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Neil Redfearn
    Former Leeds manager on BBC Radio Leeds

    They need to just keep plugging away here Leeds.

    Try not to get sucked in to a scrap.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 62 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Liam Lindsay fouls Glen Kamara 20 yards out and Leeds have a dangerous free-kick and Lindsay has a yellow card.

  19. Crowd 'getting impatient'published at 13:19 Greenwich Mean Time 21 January

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Steve Eyre
    Former Manchester City coach on BBC Radio Lancashire

    They’re doing better now. Good from North End.

    The Leeds crowd are getting impatient.

    Patrick Bamford is looking a bit frustrated too, he's not getting much service.

  20. Postpublished at 58 mins

    Leeds 1-1 Preston

    Preston go direct and win a corner in a very rare foray forward this half.

    The wind looks to really be picking up at Elland Road and Illan Meslier has not looked comfortable under crosses all day.

    A waste then that Ben Whiteman's corner doesn't force the Frenchman into action.
