'Always liked Wigan!' Leeds United fans react as West Brom draw sees Whites stay top

Leeds United remain top of the Championship after West Brom were held to a 1-1 draw by bottom-three side Wigan Athletic.

Marcelo Bielsa's men edged ahead of the the Baggies on Tuesday night when they saw off Hull City at Elland Road, with West Brom knowing a win 24 hours later would see them return to the summit.

Baggies boss Slaven Bilic made four changes from the side that saw off Swansea 5-1 at the weekend, with key duo Matheus Pereira and Grady Diangana on the bench for the clash against the struggling Latics.

But it was the hosts that took the lead when Sam Morsey's long-range shot cannoned off the crossbar, hit goalkeeper Sam Johnstone's back and went into the back of the net on 50 minutes.

But the Baggies were level less than ten minutes later when Charlie Austin slammed home after the visitors were awarded an indirect free-kick in the penalty box following a backpass.

The West Midlanders were unable to find a winner with the point earned enough to see them move level on points with Bielsa's side, but a goal worse off in the goal difference column.

Here's how Leeds United fans reacted to the result...
