Szmodics and Blackburn put major dent in Leeds’ promotion push
Sammie Szmodics dealt a crushing blow to Leeds’s automatic promotion hopes as Blackburn claimed a late win at Elland Road.
Defeat stopped the home side going top of the table for at least a few hours as Rovers defended for long periods of the game. Crysencio Summerville, Wilfried Gnonto and Connor Roberts all tested Aynsley Pears in a dominant first half for Leeds. The home side also had chances after the break but were punished by Szmodics with eight minutes to go.
