Dominic Calvert-Lewin rescues Leeds in draw with Brentford

Dominic Calvert-Lewin fired a late equaliser as Leeds fought back to salvage a 1-1 draw against Brentford in their opening home Premier League game of the season.

Calvert-Lewin converted substitute Lukas Nmecha’s low cross in the 79th minute after Kevin Schade had given Brentford a deserved half-time lead.

Leeds had been given the runaround for the first 45 minutes by a slick Brentford side who dominated, but Leeds responded to boss Daniel Farke’s tactical changes during the break and will feel they deserved their point.
