The latest Leeds United news as the Whites would have been watching Friday night's Championship encounter closely as two of their promotion rivals came head to head.
Leeds United have been handed a boost in their hopes of securing automatic promotion from the Championship at the end of the season, with promotion rivals Sunderland dropping points.
Daniel Farke’s side would have been watching on during Friday night’s feisty game, that saw a missed Sunderland penalty and two red cards. It looked to be heading for a 0-0 draw, until Tom Davies scored for Sheffield United in the 83rd minute to earn them the three points. But the numbers were evened up just seven minutes later when Sheffield United defender Harry Souttar was shown a second yellow card. Both teams therefore had to play the second half with 10 men.
