Furlong equaliser frustrates leaders at homeTwo late goals provide drama at Ewood Park
Leeds’ Championship title charge was checked as they were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw at Elland Road by West Brom. Junior Firpo headed the home side into an early lead but Darnell Furlong equalised with a looping header before the break.
Leeds were denied a sixth straight win but extended their unbeaten league run to 17 matches. West Brom’s winless league run on the road extended to 10 games. Leeds are now eight points clear of Burnley, who sit third and lost at Preston in the FA Cup, while second-placed Sheffield United play at QPR in a 3pm kick-off.
