Our Phil Hay hands out the scores...
Leeds ratings
Nice and alert when he needed to be but really, this was the easiest night a goalkeeper could ask for in the thick of a promotion scrap. 6/10
On it from the very start, always a threat down his side of the field and inches away from a goal when his low shot hit a post. 8/10
It was easy to forget that players like Maguire and Nmecha were on the field and neither of them was having any joy prior to Pearsons red card either. 7/10
A fairly simple match but made it straightforward by avoiding mistakes, using the ball sensibly and giving away very few free-kicks. 7/10
Good without being spectacular, which is half the battle in a team who are playing well. Bielsas defence werent troubled. 7/10
Utterly dominant against some decent players in Pearson, Browne and Johnson. The night could easily have been lost there but Phillips gave no quarter. 8/10
