Leeds United tied Liverpool down at Elland Road.

Before now, or even from their very first match this season with Liverpool, I had always known they've come to stay. Leeds United has this pattern of play that seems like they never get to give up, even when it seems more like they're loosing the match on a large note, they still play to keep possessions and secure more consolation goals. It happened more beautiful and more unexpected against Manchester City, though they lost possession against City which I believe happened due to the red card Cooper had in the first half of the match.

Leeds had successfully trouble big teams in the EPL this season despite the fact that they appear quite new in the league this season, they've placed with an impression which could lead them to the UEL qualifiers. I would definitely love to see Leeds play the UEL but to have that happen, they can't afford to lose any of their six matches left in the EPL this season.


LIKE IT HAPPENED TONIGHT!

Watching the first half appeared like Liverpool could win if only they would utilize the chances they were having at that point in the first half, Leeds were containing much pressure in the first half and at the same time keeping the ball well in possession whenever they had it on them. Leeds had less attacks and attempt in the first half until Bamford couldn't utilize well the mistake Kabak made few minutes to half-time.

Alexander Arnold played beautifully well tonight from top to bottom, he gave out the crucial and sensational pass which led to their only goal in the first half. Let's say Liverpool made the mistake of not having their attacks so unbearable in the first half. Flashing back to the EPL match between Leeds and Manchester United this season, one can easily tell of how easy it came for Manchester due to the fact that they kept the pressure on and so hot on Leeds mostly in the first half and that got them so much goals than Leeds could ever recover from in just the first half, and that's how to beat Leeds because they'll always fight to win the possession, and big teams or all teams facing Leeds also make the mistake of trying to win the possession too instead of applying more force in their attacks to get more goals.

Llorente who had committed a little error early in the match later brought justice back to place by bringing on the last minutes goal through an header to seal a home draw result for Leeds United.

Right from the first minute of the second half, it has been so obvious Liverpool was going to be pressed by Leeds, they have a single goal from the first half and could break Leeds defense anymore, like few teams I love in the European football world, Leeds increased the intensity of their attacking force like they just had to get a goal, that spirit I so much love and it makes football worth watching. Liverpool are still not certain of making the top 4 yet this season as they seat below Westham and Chelsea at the 6th position. It's still possible Liverpool makes the top 4 but then, there has to be a Coup to get Westham out of the top 5 which might not be that hard but the war would be in between Chelsea, Leicester, and Liverpool, none of them can afford to lose anyhow this season anymore. But, it's football and we just have the watch the acts and the businesses!
