Tarik Muharemovic and Gabi Gudmundsson play big roles as Leeds United stars collide in Nations League battle
Two Leeds United stars faced each other on Friday night.
Leeds United stars Tarik Muharemovic and Gabi Gudmundsson both played big roles as a battle between Whites teammates in the Nations League ended all square.
Leeds have a dozen players away on senior international duty and two of them locked horns with each other on Friday night as Muharemovic’s Bosnia-Herzegovina team hosted Gudmundsson’s Sweden side in a Nations League contest.
Both were selected to start the contest and both players played the full 90 minutes of a contest that ended in a 1-1 draw.
After a goalless first half, upcoming Arsenal rival Viktor Gyokeres fired Sweden ahead in the 61st minute, Leeds set to face Gyokeres in the first Premier League game after the international break at the Emirates next Saturday lunchtime.
His goal had Sweden on course for victory but Juventus winger Kerim Alajbegovic drew Bosnia level with ten minutes left to ultimately seal a 1-1 draw.
