Leeds took on Reading in the championship.

Leeds United's Stuart Dallas welcomes the fans as he arrives for the Sky Bet Championship match between Leeds United and Bristol City at Elland Road on November 24, 2018 in Leeds, England.

Leeds United won a close win over Reading with a goal from Stuart Dallas.

Bailey Peabad-Farrell escaped a penalty in the 89th minute to retain his lead.

Former Leeds striker Noel Whelan reacted instantly to BBC Radio Leeds.

He said: "We have to start taking risks and being a little more ruthless, we can not continue to waste opportunities.

"A great performance from Peabad-Farrell, he came tonight and showed a lot of character.

"These two points could be vital at the end of the season."

At half-time, the match seemed to go nowhere.

Both teams got frustrated and Leeds had few sparks.

The manager, Marcelo Bielsa, responded by performing a double replacement. Jack Clarke, 18, is replaced.

The crowd reacts to the new energy of the team and Stuart Dallas scores the first goal 15 minutes into the match.

Leeds was strongly favored to enter the game, with Reading in 20th place and whites in third.

A result below three points would have been a disappointing result and if the performance was not the best of the season in Leeds, the win could be crucial at the end of the season.
