Leeds United 1-1 Brentford: Pontus Jansson rescues point for Sky Bet Championship leaders


Leeds United kept their place at the top of the Sky Bet Championship, thanks to Pontus Jansson's late equaliser to rescue a 1-1 draw with Brentford.

The visitors looked to be heading for victory after Neal Maupay netted his 10th of the season with a second-half penalty after goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell controversially brought down Ollie Watkins.

Leeds got back into the game at the death though, with a free-kick which Swedish defender Jansson headed home two minutes from time.

Leeds defender Luke Ayling saw red in added time after receiving a second yellow card.
