A set piece denied Leeds a victory at the Amex Stadium. Croatian defender Luka Vuskovic headed Brighton level from a corner, giving the home side a 1-1 draw and some relief after its defeat at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea.
Leeds had gone ahead after 15 minutes when Jayden Bogle finished a move created by Japan international Ao Tanaka. Tanaka later put the ball in the net again, but VAR ruled out the goal.
The visitors remained the more dangerous side on the counterattack, particularly in the second half. Brighton improved after the break, and that pressure eventually produced the equalizer when Maxim De Cuyperโs corner found Vuskovic, who headed beyond goalkeeper James Trafford.
The result kept both Brighton and Leeds around the middle of the standings. Leeds remain unbeaten after beating Nottingham Forest and drawing with Brentford in their previous two matches.
