Leeds United failed to win against Norwich City in the Championship this evening.

Elland Road

Leeds United failed to win against Norwich City on Saturday afternoon, but it was one of their best and most memorable performances of the season.

The Whites headed into the Championship game at Elland Road as favourites, but they were 3-1 down at half time.

Goals from Steven Naismith and Nelson Oliveira (two) saw the Canaries go 3-0 up, but Chris Wood pulled one back for the home team in first-half injury time.

Kyle Bartley scored in the opening minutes of the second half, before Pablo Hernandez found the net with a stunning free-kick goal on 78 minutes.

It was one of Hernandez’s best goals in a Leeds shirt, and it was a moment of pure magic. That goal did give the home team a ray of hope in their playoff push, but the game ended in a 3-3 draw despite the dismissal of Naismith in the 28th minute.

Hernandez has scored one goal and created seven chances in 23 Championship matches for Leeds this season.

Leeds are seventh in the Championship table at the moment with 74 points from 45 matches.
