Leeds United vs Burnley

A tale of two halves

Leeds United and Burnley played out a 0-0 draw at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon in a match that was low on quality but high on effort.

The first half was a forgettable affair, with neither side able to create any clear-cut chances.

The second half was a more entertaining affair, with both sides having chances to win the game.

The best chance of the match fell to Leeds striker Patrick Bamford in the 70th minute, but he fired wide from 10 yards out.

Burnley also had their chances, with Jay Rodriguez going close on a number of occasions.

In the end, a draw was probably a fair result, with neither side deserving to win.
