24 year old Leeds winger Jack Harrison has given Leeds the opening lead tonight for his sixth Premier League goal of the season.
Tonight is a must win game for Leeds if they want to contend for a spot in European football next season. They are within touching distance of Europa League football and if they want that then they have to get a full three points against palace who currently sit in the bottom half of the league.
Left with way too much time on the ball and defenders reluctant to push him, Jack was given the chance to take a shot which bounced luckily for him over the head of Palace keeper Guaita.
What a start for #LUFC!
Harrison's shot takes a deflection and beats Guaita to give Leeds the perfect start.

Will Leeds be able to hold onto this lead and get the full three points they need to challenge for Europa League? Or will Bielsaβs men have to settle for a top ten finish in the league?
