Charlton won an early free kick in a dangerous position, but Jackson’s effort was headed clear. Leeds had a chance, but put the ball wide. Wiggins won a corner for Charlton after combining well with Harriott. Charlton were making some good moves, particularly on the left.
The formation seemed fluid, sometimes 4-4-2, then 4-4-1-1 and at other times 4-5-1.
A block by Wilson led to the first corner for Leeds, but it led to nothing more than a Charlton goal kick. Harriott slipped as an opportunity presented itself.
Leeds won a corner following a free kick which Henderson collected. After a great move by the Addicks culminating in a great cross from Harriott, Charlton won their third corner. Bikey put in an effort which did not have enough power and it was cleared just short of the line.
Henderson had to make a very good save at the expense of a corner. Bikey headed the ball clear.
Ben Haim made a good run, but needed to pass the ball.
Charlton had edged it, but had not created many goal scoring opportunities. Leeds won a last minute corner, but it was headed clear.
HT 0-0
Cousins got a yellow card for a foul. Leeds then went ahead with Mowatt putting the ball into the top left-hand corner after being given too much time and space.
Tucudean came off after a quiet first half and was replaced by Vetokele.
Leeds applied some pressure, but Charlton survived. Buyens made way for the Arsenal loan player Coquelin who went on to show that he is no Frimpong.
Wiggins put in a great cross and Gudmundsson fired the ball in to make it 1-1 on 62 minutes. Charlton found themselves under pressure for a spell, failed to clear their lines and Leeds made it 2-1 through Mowatt on 67 minutes.
Harriott was taken off and Onyewu came on and won an early free kick. Wiggins had to go off injured, reducing Charlton to ten men. A foul on the big American led to a Charlton penalty. Gudmundsson equalised. Wilson went out to the left and Cousins moved to right back.
Leeds got a fortunate corner. Five minutes were added on. Charlton defended well, with Coquelin effective, but Leeds won a late corner, then the whistle went.

WHY PLAY DEFENDERS UP FRONT GET A STRIKER IN PLEASE FFS
Who would you recommend?
Credit to BP a promising loan move (maybe more) and some good use of the subs. If it had remained the same as a week ago we would possibly have lost this one. And be in a worse shape for the Reading match.
Needs must JA! Not ideal, but had the desired affect.
Anybody fancy Bournemouth for Prem?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
