Ayling’s proud family moment
Luke Ayling led the Leeds United side out of the tunnel for the 10th match on the bounce last night, but this was an extra special pitch walk for him. The right-back was walking side by side with his daughter as the team’s mascot for the evening.
Bamford calls for calm
In the 33rd minute, with a frantic few minutes behind them, Patrick Bamford was raising his hands and urging calm from everyone. As he looked back at the defensive line he was telling them to hold onto the ball and slow things down as the side took a breather.
Chris and Kev remembered
The club’s made it clear, in collaboration with Christopher Loftus and Kevin Speight’s families, Sunday’s clash with Crystal Palace will be its official day of remembrance for the two supporters killed in Turkey 23 years ago. On April 5, the anniversary of their deaths, there will be a service at Elland Road.

However, the plans for Sunday did not stop fans taking it upon themselves to turn their backs to the action in the 23rd minute last night. Flags dedicated to both Chris and Kevin were unfurled as the supporters, en masse, turned away to remember the men.
Rodrigo goes overboard
In the latter stages of Tuesday’s match, with Nottingham Forest increasingly desperate to push for an equaliser, centre-back Felipe was among those showing his frustration. In one altercation with Rodrigo, who had booted the ball away after failing to keep it in play, the defender bundled the forward over the top of a John Charles Stand advertising hoarding.
Rodrigo would end up on his head with his legs in the air. Felipe had already been cautioned earlier in the night, but avoided a second yellow from referee Rob Jones.
Adams shows his face
Tyler Adams had not been seen or heard from since the terrible news about his hamstring injury and subsequent surgery last month. The American came out onto the field at the full-time whistle to celebrate with his team-mates and the most pleasing aspect was the absence of any crutches.
