'I'm an emotional wreck' Leeds United fans react to dramatic comeback win over Millwall

Pablo Hernandez's late winner capped a dramatic comeback win for Leeds United over Millwall which saw the Whites return to second place.

Leeds fell behind to a tenth minute opener from Ben Marshall, who headed Mahlon Romeo's sliding cross into the back of the net, following a slow start from the hosts.

But Leeds were handed a lifeline when Jed Wallace brought Gjanni Alioski down in the box and referee Darren Bond pointed to the spot, only for Patrick Bamford to see his spot kick saved by David Martin in the Lions goal.

An equaliser would eventually come though, with Pablo Hernandez slotting away a Luke Ayling cutback as the sides went in level at the break.

Millwall would win a penalty of their own at the start of the second half though, as Ben Marshall went down under a Liam Cooper challenge. Marshall himself stepped up to take the penalty and slotted past Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Luke Ayling headed Leeds level after 71 minutes, before Hernandez scored his second wit seven minutes to go to seal the comeback.

With Bristol City securing a 3-2 win of their own against Sheffield United, it means Bielsa's men are back in the top two with seven games to go.
