Ratings: How Leeds United fared against Crystal Palace
Meslier: Not too much to do, in truth before making a big save to deny Benteke late on. 7
Dallas: Had to be alert with Zaha in close proximity. Stuck to his guns, worked incessantly. Booked. 7

Hide AdLlorente: Some loose moments in possession, but looked United's safer best in the middle of the defence. 6
Cooper: His axis with Struijk on the left hand side of defence was not convincing. But dug deep for the team and was involved in the fateful late penalty for Leeds. 6
Struijk: Had a very difficult half against Ayew and his substitution was inevitable. Booked and also suffered an injury. 4
Phillips: Looked like a man on a mission early on in front of Gareth Southgate. Tried to drag along Leeds when the night became tough. 6

Hide AdForshaw: Featured in an advanced role and looked again to be one of Leeds's more accomplished players. Booked. 7
Raphinha: Quiet by his standards in the first half. But came into it in the second half. And what a cool finish. 8
Klich: Offered a chance from the off and the game passed him by, unfortunately. 4
James: Kept persisting, even if things did not always go his way and his attitude and desire was good. Set up a golden chance for Rodrigo. 7
