r/LeedsUnited | reddlx

Peter Reid's side arrive 16th on 41 points with two games left, level with Bolton and West Ham after the Hammers beat Chelsea the day before. Arsenal have to win to keep their title defence alive.Alan Smith is suspended, so the captain steps up into midfield and a centre-back comes into the side.

Five minutes in, Harry Kewell bends in the opener after a team-mate's pass cuts out Keown. Henry equalises on 31 minutes.

Three minutes after the break, a low free-kick deflects off Ashley Cole and Gilberto to restore the lead. It's the taker's third season in a row scoring at Highbury.

Bergkamp levels again on 63 minutes, and only the goalkeeper keeps Leeds in it. Then, with two minutes left, the captain plays in the striker. He lopes past Luzhny and drives into the far corner for his 19th league goal of the season.

Leeds move to 44 points and are effectively safe. Arsenal's defeat makes United champions, so one result settles both ends of the table.

Can you name the missing players?

[Beren Cross] Jayden Bogle interview: England hopes and that Newcastle goal – ‘Don’t tell Dom, whatever you do’

Jayden Bogle was preparing for the second half of last month’s 4-1 win over Newcastle United when he heard the news.

Referee Michael Salisbury approached Bogle and told him he was being credited with a first-half goal after the slightest glance of the ball. His first reaction? Asking the referee not to tell Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

“At the time, I had no idea what happened,” says Bogle. “JJ (James Justin) put in a great ball, and I thought, ‘Yeah, this is me’. You’ve seen Dom’s jump before. He just towers over everyone, and I was just on the floor. I didn’t really know what happened.

“I just heard the crowd and knew we had scored. The referee said to me, at half-time, it’s gone down as my goal because it’s come off my shoulder or something.

“And I was like, ‘Don’t tell Dom, whatever you do. He’s on a yellow card. Don’t tell him because he’s going to get head-loss’. Then he went and told him anyway."

Pregnant at Elland Road

Hi guys. I’m hoping to get a ticket via the MyLeeds ballot for the Scum game, and my pregnant wife is also interested in going, by getting her to enter the ballot with me.

I’ve never been to Elland Road before, so I’m wondering if it’s safe for her with regards to the inevitable limbs when Tanaka scores a last-minute game-winning 40 yard thunderbastard. Which stands are the most «quiet», essentially?

I know our chances are slim for tickets, but any help is appreciated.

EDIT: We ended up getting hospitality tickets. Thanks for your feedback! MOT!
