Jack Harrison protected a point for Leeds in a 2-2 home draw against Brighton yet it was sufficiently not to lift his side out of the Head Association transfer zone. Harrison twisted home a 78th-minute balancer having prior scored an own objective as Leeds two times hit back to grab a vital point against their high-flying guests.
Alexis Macintosh Allister's header was counteracted by Patrick Bamford's staggering balancer before the break and Harrison offered to set things right for transforming the ball into his own net in the last part with another splendid completion. Leeds had dropped into the last three preceding start up after Bournemouth's unexpected home win against Liverpool and tension loomed over the patios.
It is surprising to hear the away fans at Elland Street and in the midst of serenades of "you're going down with the Bournemouth", Brighton arose as the more probable side to score following a rough opening 15 minutes. The house group's grave state of mind was reflected in their side's brazen beginning as mis-set passes at the back welcomed more Brighton pressure.
Leeds irregularly compromised and Luke Ayling was a denied a scoring opportunity from six yards by Kaoru Mitoma's last-ditch tackle. Be that as it may, there was a demeanor of certainty about Brighton's opener. Pascal Gross chose Mitoma at the far post and his header back across the essence of objective was going home by Macintosh Allister.
Then, at that point, out of the blue Bamford lifted the state of mind. He gathered Harrison's pass on the edge of the area and crashed home a balancer by means of a diversion off Adam Webster and the crossbar. Macintosh Allister ought to have recovered the lead for Brighton when he side-footed Mitoma's reduction off target right away before half-time.
Leeds kept up with their force toward the beginning of the final part. Brenden Aaronson's low shot was tipped away for a corner by Jason Steele and Ayling blasted Harrison's cross to the far post high and wide. Leeds' fans at this point had gotten comfortable with themselves, yet Brighton went on again in the 61st moment.
Max Wober's endeavored leeway from Mitoma's low cross bounced back off Illan Meslier and Harrison transformed the ball into his own net under tension from Solly Walk. Leeds sent on substitutes Rodrigo, Weston McKennie and Willy Gnonto in the 66th moment before Brighton ought to have broadened their lead.
Brighton substitute Danny Welbeck turned inside two Leeds protectors just to miss before objective and the guests were made to pay. Harrison stepped on to Gnonto's short corner and from the left edge of the area twisted home a splendid balancer inside Steele's far post. Leeds' allures for a late penalty were waved away when Rodrigo went down under Webster's test and the point left them second from base in the table, while Brighton scaled to seventh.
