Leeds United extended their unbeaten Premier League run to seven games following Monday’s 1-1 comeback draw at Tottenham Hotspur. Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s second-half penalty cancelled out a Mathys Tel opener to take the Whites back above Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest in the table.

Tottenham had the better of the first-half, dominating possession and creating a handful of half chances which Richarlison, Joao Palhinha and others squandered. The home side got their opening goal just after the break with a moment of quality, Tel curling beyond Karl Darlow after a corner was cleared his way.
