Bristol City 2 Leeds United 2: Flint seals late fightback to deny Leeds first league win

Leeds had seemed on course for their first win of the campaign after taking a two-goal lead inside 52 minutes through Mirco Antenucci and Chris Wood.

But City equalised through former Rotherham United striker Kieran Agard in the 89th-minute before Aden Flint capped a grandstand finish when he bundled home deep into stoppage time after goalkeeper Marco Silvestri had failed to hold Marlon Pack’s header.

Antenucci had profited from a slick Leeds counter-attack six minutes before the break.

Wood slipped in Antenucci and the Italian fell over Ben Hamer’s outstretched arm as the City goalkeeper came rushing out.

Hamer was booked for his part in the incident and Antenucci composed himself to send the goalkeeper the wrong way from the spot for his second goal of the season. At 1-0 down, Jonathan Kodjia wasted a great chance to equalise after Silvestri could only parry Aaron Wilbraham’s effort and it was a miss that would come to haunt City within seven minutes of the re-start.

Leeds launched another swift raid and this time Antenucci turned provider for Wood to score a first Leeds goal since his summer move from Leicester as he rifled a powerful shot past his former Foxes team-mate Hamer.

It means Leeds have drawn all three of their opening games in the Championship.
