LEEDS UNITED rescued a dramatic 1-1 draw against Preston in Thursday’s late Championship kick-off, to cancel out a goal from Ireland international Alan Browne.
Championship leaders West Bromwich Albion earlier had to settle for a 1-1 draw against Barnsley
The draw extended West Brom’s unbeaten run to 14 matches.
Second-placed Leeds could not take full advantage, relying on a deflected Stuart Dallas goal to avoid defeat against Preston at Elland Road.
Browne’s smart 22nd-minute finish put Preston ahead until Dallas struck one minute from time.
A fabulous flowing team move from Preston is finished off by Browne after the team won the ball back deep in their own half - a perfectly-executed counter attack 👌
