Referee Darren England took centre stage as he allowed a free-flowing game of football to rile up players and fans alike, with the home support especially aggrieved by England's refusal to dismiss Dan James for a heavy challenge on Joel Ward.
VAR took a closer look at a tackle by Diego Llorente on the advancing Conor Gallagher but a spot-kick was not given as both sides failed to finish chances from open play.
Leeds have now opened up a five-point cushion on the drop zone ahead of a tough run of fixtures against Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea.

2. Luke Ayling
4 - Given a difficult night by Zaha. Frustrated the winger in the first half but lost out too often in the second half. Better going forward.

3. Liam Cooper
6 - Solid with few mistakes, lots of full-blooded defending and aerial battles but not entirely dominant as he was last time out.

5. Stuart Dallas

6. Kalvin Phillips
5 - Unable to stop Gallagher from enjoying himself too much, threw himself into tackles though. Impact was mostly very necessary physicality.
