Patrick Bamford misses sitter of the season to heighten Leeds relegation fears

Patrick Bamford spurned a magnificent chance to pull Leeds further clear of the Premier League relegation zone in the closing stages against Leicester on Tuesday night.

Leeds were held to a 1-1 draw by relegation rivals Leicester at Elland Road after Jamie Vardy came off the bench to equalise for the away side. Luis Sinisterra put Leeds ahead after 20 minutes before Vardy finished from James Maddion's pass in the 80th minute.

Bamford had a golden chance to put the home team back in front but somehow failed to hit the target from a few yards out. After an inswinging corner was flicked on at the near post, he found himself unmarked inside the six-yard box, but could only send his side-footed effort wide.
