The scenes that followed the final whistle on Sunday at the London Stadium were difficult to watch for those of a Leeds United persuasion. A lifeless and limp performance led to a 3-1 defeat against West Ham United and that result left the Whites teetering on the edge of relegation.
Leeds knew the clash was one they had to win to be in control of their own fate come the final day, but they were played off the park by the Hammers and it looks a long way back at this stage. That disappointment and exasperation was reflected on the pitch at full-time.
While West Ham celebrated a win on their final home match of the season, Robin Koch and Wilfried Gnonto were amongst those seen on their haunches looking despondent. Joel Robles slumped to the ground in defeat, while others made attempts to shake hands with their opponents in the east London sun before heading over to the pocket of supporters in the corner of the Sir Trevor Brooking Stand.
