Roofe kept the Reds defence busy

Cheered on by the mighty impressive and loud support of the visiting fans, the Leeds team not only kept the Liverpool attack quiet but also threatened to cause a huge upset by creating goal-scoring chances.

With the score level at 0-0 in the 53rd minute and Liverpool struggling to trouble the Leeds defence, Kemar Roofe gave Simon Mignolet and the Reds a huge scare when his curling shot from the edge of the box hit the post.

Leeds had another golden opportunity to go ahead in the game when Kyle Bartley got a free header from a corner in the 64th minute but somehow managed to head it wide from 6 yards.
