Eddie Nketiah scored his third Championship goal of the season as Leeds United drew with Preston North End at Deepdale on Tuesday night.
It wasn’t going to be an easy tie for the Whites as Alex Neil’s side were just four points ahead of them, and it was the hosts that took the lead in the 74th minute courtesy of potential South African player Tom Barkhuizen.

With defeat staring in the eyes of Leeds, Nketiah was thrown in for Patrick Bamford in the 77th minute and he equalised three minutes from time with a powerful header after connecting with Jack Harrison’s brilliantly-drilled cross.
