The victory went to the locals

Match ended

A fair win for Fleetwood, who did more for the match, had a lot of defensive order and managed to stop the Leeds offense.

With two goals in 3 minutes, the home team turned around a match where luck was not on their side and the score was too short.

Leeds, for their part, lost their unbeaten preseason and will have to improve a lot for their next match. 

⏱ Min 90+1

This second half will be played for 2 more minutes.

⏱ Min 90

It's still not shown how much added time will be in this game and Leeds can't find the ball to try and equalize in the last few minutes.

Possession goes to the Fishermen and we are at the hands of the referee who will end the game at any moment. 

⏱ Min 88

The home team had another chance, Fleetwood almost scored the third goal, but once again luck did not work in their favor and Clark, alone in front of the goal, missed the ball and sent it to the stands where the fans celebrated the partial victory.

⏱ Min 85

In the final stretch of the match, the home team continued to win, turning the game around in 3 minutes and that is enough for them to be the winner of this good preseason friendly.

⏱ Min 82

Time is running out for Leeds, there is very little time left and they can't find a way through to an equalizer.

⏱ Min 80

The home team is saved, a spectacular save by the Fleetwood goalkeeper prevents the equalizer.

⏱ Min 76

There is a dangerous set piece for the home team, which is going to collect from the right flank and in three quarters of the field.

⏱ Min 74

The possession is for the white team, which seeks to build a play and does not find space, so it ends up playing with the ball and dividing the ball to finally lose the ball and have to start over again.

⏱ Min 70

There will be 20 minutes left for Leeds to get a draw and not lose their unbeaten run of the last few games where they have won 4 in a row in their last 5 matches.

⏱ Min 68

Leeds get back into the game and look for an equalizer with wing play, so far their halftime changes don't look good, nor do they provide any solution to their style of play.

⏱ Min 64

Cambios para Fleetwood cuando Halliday le da paso a Holgate, entran también Lane y Pilkington, salen por ellos Camps y Morris.

⚽ GOOOOL

Garner takes the penalty kick to his right and over the top and changes the penalty kick into a goal to turn the game around and do justice to what was seen on the field.

⏱ Min 60

There is a penalty for the home team, a play where the Leeds central defender arrives late and ends up fouling Rossiter.

⏱ Min 58

Cresswell goes down due to a kick to the level of his face, after the evaluation of the doctors, they consider it pertinent for him to leave the field and then give way to Moore.

⚽ GOOOOL

The home team ties it.

A strange play and a mistake by the visiting goalkeeper to tie the game.

A quick transition play by Fleetwood, which seemed to be controlled by the goalkeeper, but forward Morris took advantage of it and only had to push it into an empty net. 

⏱ Min 52

The intensity of the game drops again, Leeds tries to have the ball and sleep a little, Fleetwood does not make it to the last quarter and the game is played a lot in the midfield, with a lot of fouls and the game is often cut short.

⏱ Min 50

The same idea of play as at the end of the first half persisted, with the home team trying to equalize without having much definition and good finishing in the last quarter and Leeds failing to make plays with long possession.

⏱ Min 48

Clarcke and Cresswell collide in a dispute for the ball in the air and the match has to be stopped for a moment, so that the doctors from each team can come in to check them out.

⏱ Min 46

Several changes were made at halftime.

For the home team Garner entered and Morton came out, for the visitors it was a double change, Froshaw and Miller came out, to give way to Poveda and Bate.

The second half started

The central referee gives the order and the second half of this exciting pre-season match between Fleetwood and Leeds is underway.

 

Halftime

First half ended

Leeds, which is still winning the game, is suffering, is not finding itself after scoring the goal and must have a change of attitude in the second half, if it wants to leave as the winner of the game.

On their side, the local team has done everything to tie the game, but they still lack luck, because they have the ability to build a play, but not to finish.

 

⏱ Min 45

What Fleetwood missed!

It was the Fishermen's equaliser, but they were unlucky, Morris pulls the ball back just inside the box, Rossiter makes the initial effort to kick! but no one can get the final touch as the ball trickles over the visitors' goal line!

⏱ Min 42

They only dedicated themselves to defending, they forgot about high pressure and just let time pass, looking for the first half to end and surely be able to rethink the game, which despite winning, they lost control and were unable to make three passes in a row.

⏱ Min 40

We entered the final stretch of this first half, where Leeds lost all control after scoring the goal and Fleetwood did everything possible to equalize before going to the break.

⏱ Min 38

Camps had a chance, who received the ball alone in three quarters of the field, ran into the area, when he wanted to score, hit it badly and sent it wide of the goal defended by goalkeeper Van Den Heuvel.

⏱ Min 35

The one who tries the hardest at Fleetwood is Morton, but without much luck and without good help from his teammates.

⏱ Min 32

Morton shot from half distance, the ball went well over the Leeds goal, but slowly but surely Fleetwood are closing in.

⏱ Min 30

Leeds' intensity drops a little and the game is again played a lot in the middle of the pitch.

⏱ Min 28

The home team was saved, with a great play on the left, the goalkeeper saved with a spectacular save.

⏱ Min 26

The Whites continue to dominate the ball, and will try to score the second goal quickly and leave with a good advantage in the first half.

⚽ GOOOOL

Goooooool for Leeds

And it couldn't be any other way than with a set piece, in such close games it is very important to take advantage of these moves and Leeds knows about it.

After a corner kick from the left, Cresswell jumped more than everyone, headed to the ground and that was enough to beat the goalkeeper and put the first of the match.

⏱ Min 22

Now it is Leeds who try to impose conditions and take possession of the ball, but no matter how much they play and play, they do not manage to open spaces, to make a good attack through the middle, so they opt to use the wings, but there the team does not look so fast.

⏱ Min 20

The teams still do not dare to take mid-distance shots, which is very opportune in such close games and where every opportunity to score a shot must be taken to make the difference.

⏱ Min 18

The ball is Fleetwood's, who is in three-quarter court, gives a lot of circulation to the ball, but still does not dare to penetrate the defensive line with a filtered pass or a wall in the last quarter.

⏱ Min 16

The match started to become very disputed in the middle of the field, the intensity of the first minutes dropped and they were more concerned with having possession of the ball than with making quick attacks and looking for a goal.

 

⏱ Min 15

First quarter of an hour and the match is still goalless, neither of the two teams has dominated possession of the ball and the only one that came close to the goal was Leeds, with an isolated play that looked more like an execution error.

⏱ Min 12

Leeds try to press high with up to 5 players at the same time, but it is not very productive and when the ball breaks through that line of pressure, the team is split and badly stopped.

⏱ Min 10

The first dangerous approach for Leeds, who made a move down the left flank, changed for Dean, who tried to cross, but the ball was blocked and the goalkeeper had to force himself to send it to the corner.

⏱ Min 8

Fleetwood gradually began to steal the ball and started to attack on the right flank.

⏱ Min 6

This is a very fast game as we are used to from the English, with back-and-forth play and there is still no clear dominator of the ball.

It is played very direct, without much construction and there are only approaches up to three quarters of the field. 

⏱ Min 4

Now the set piece is for the fishermen, who will try to do damage from the air from the right flank in front of the opponent's box.

⏱ Min 3

The first set-piece of the match went to Leeds, who took the ball from the right flank over three-quarters of the pitch, but the ball was quickly returned by the home side's defense.

⏱ Min 1

The visitors dominate the ball and give a lot of ball circulation in their own half, the first few minutes they do not hurt each other and everything is to evaluate the opponent.

An undefeated streak

First let's start with the home team, of the last five games played by Fleetwood, three were wins and two draws.

The fishermen's team scored 8 goals in their last five games and conceded only 4.

On the other side, the story is no different, they are also unbeaten in their last five games, winning four in a row and drawing their last game.

Leeds' scoring history is much better, scoring 13 goals and conceding only 4.

So on paper, we will have an excellent game and full of goals.

 

The short history between the two

The history between these two teams is very short, so short that it only goes back to a single match, which was valid for the English League Cup, it was in the 1/64 round and the victory was for Leeds, who played as visitors,

The match in the 90 minutes was 2-2, but in penalties, the white team was superior and did not take any of their penalties.

The match was so hard-fought that two goals were scored in extra time. And the final tie came in the 111th minute.

Leeds and a tough opponent

Marcelo Bielsa's team comes from a draw in their last preseason match, in which they faced Blackburn Rovers in a very disputed match and where they arrived as favorites, but which they had to come back because they started losing.

The final score was 1-1 and the goals came in the second half of the match.

Fleetwood arrives in good shape for this preseason game

The Lancashire team has been doing very well this preseason and their last game before facing Leeds was a victory.

At home they defeated Huddersfield Town of the second division of English soccer 2-1.

In that game the goals came very early and the rest of the game saw a number of players coming off the bench.
