Leon Bailey and Emiliano Buendia netted as Aston Villa restored pride after their humiliating FA Cup exit.
But Leeds will be left wondering how they left empty-handed after dominating for long spells and having 15 shots. The visitors had a goal ruled out by VAR and were denied by a superb save from Villa’s World Cup-winner Emiliano Martinez.
They struggled to find a way past the Argentine until substitute Patrick Bamford’s late effort. But it wasn’t enough after Bailey superbly fired the hosts into an early lead after a quick break.
