FULL-TIME
Leeds will feel that is harsh - they had the chances to get something there. Fell asleep and were punished by the Foxes. Bate might’ve had a penalty in injury-time.
Time almost up
90+5. Replays suggest Leeds have a case for the penalty shout... McGurk getting some late treatment. Time almost up.
LEEDS PENALTY SHOUT
90+5. Bate down in the box... he wants a penalty. Ref waves it away. There was a stray toe. Nothing given.
LEEDS CHANCE
90+2. So close... McGurk delivers a beauty of a ball across the six-yard box. Leicester almost turn it home. Corner.
LEEDS CHANCE
90. Chance... Drameh pulls the ball back to Bate on the edge of the box. He shoots low into the side netting. Young didn’t move. Five added on.
CITY CHANCE
89. Huge chance for Leicester to finish it... McAteer breaks the offside trap and has all the time in the world to beat Klaesson. He puts it wide.
Leeds attack
87. United finding it really difficult to break down the Leicester defence. They’re dropping right in and putting all their bodies between the goal and the edge of the box. Leeds work from left to right and back again but can’t find a shooting chance. Drameh tries to cross but overruns the ball and boots it into the hoardings in frustration.
