Pascal Struijk was the hero for Leeds United in stoppage time as he headed Joe Gelhardt’s cross into the back of the net to move his side out of the relegation zone. His goal – and the point that came with it – means the Whites will go into the final day with a chance of survival.
Although, despite moving out of the relegation zone, Leeds could go to Brentford occupying a place in the bottom three if Burnley win or draw against Aston Villa in their game-in-hand on Thursday. Such results would leave Jesse Marsch’s side needing a win in West London at the weekend.
However, Struijk claimed that he and his team mates need to focus more on themselves than anyone else in the next few days. After the draw with Brighton, he was asked about the significance of Burnley and Everton’s games in hand.
