Pontus Jansson rescued a late point for Leeds United yesterday.
Leeds had a tough game against Brentford and were losing 1-0 until Jansson delivered a late goal.
Neal Maupay had scored for the Bees, converting a penalty after Ollie Watkins was adjudged to have been fouled in the box.
Brentford looked set for a 1-0 victory at Leeds. But Jansson came up with the goods at the death.
Ezgjan Alioski, who had a much improved performance, delivered an inch-perfect free-kick and Jansson did the rest.

The Sweden international rose the highest, hung in the air and thumped his header into the net.
It was a dramatic late goal which kept Leeds towards the top of the Championship table.
Jansson is enjoying a very impressive season and his defensive work was immense as usual.
Here are what Leeds fans were saying about Jansson after the Brentford display.
Love the passion, best CB in the league, never change
