Leeds United were unable to reach the quarter-final stage of the FA Cup for the first time since 2003 as they dropped out of the competition in a 2-0 loss to Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The opening goal came from Cottagers midfielder Joao Palhinha who let loose a wonderful 30-yard effort which bent past Whites goalkeeper Illan Meslier who was caught off his line following a poor Tyler Adams pass.
But just before half-time, Leeds had their best chance of the first 45 minutes to level the scores but Georginio Rutter was unable to direct a great header past Marek Rodak with only the post standing between him and his first Leeds goal.
