Referee: Andy Davies (Hampshire)
Attendance: 12,005 (735 away) Leeds would have brought more
Well that was fun, six goals two disallowed and a referee who by the end of the game had managed to upset everyone in the ground and add into the mix a couple of downpours during the game the second of which threatened to drown Rudd at the Kop End.
City will probably feel the more disappointed of the two sides, probably in the main the better side during the match, will be a bit miffed about the Diedhiou disallowed goal late on which might have won them the game however we seem to have issues with both the two first half City goals, possible fouls on the keeper couldn't tell from were I was although thought before the corner leading to the second we should have the throw in.
City started well we found it hard to get past two banks of four and five which Johnson seems to have adapted too this season, we were far too slow with our passing and didn't relly keep the ball well.
Defensively we were all over the place Fisher had bailed us out with a last ditch clearance and Rudd had made two good saves so it wasn't a surprise when Moore fired home from a corner although North End claimed the ball was kicked out of Rudd's hand.
Second also from corner when the ball came in massive shout from behind the goal before Weimann's header went in off the underside of the bar

We had only one really degent chance Maguire hit the side netting should have scored.
Back in the game in first half injury time Johnson foukd Gally did the rest.
Level after half time another penalty hand ball Johnson did the rest this time.
Level not for long City had had one disallowed for offside, another dead ball we didn't deal with Baker from eight yards through Rudd.
Personal view thought City woukd win from here but from our first corner in two league games second phase ball back post BFG headed home.
End to end from thn on in City disallowed goal both sides had chances to win it, take the draw we were not at our best today.
