FT Leeds United 2 Nottingham Forest 1

Leeds United got their Championship term back on track with a spirit win over Nottingham Forest.

Luciano Becchio and 19-year-old Dominic Poleon struck in the first half at Elland Road to help United recover from successive losses and inflict a first defeat of the season on Forest.

Visiting manager Sean O’Driscoll reacted to a woeful first-half display by throwing on substitutes Henri Lansbury and Lewis McGugan immediately after the break but Forest were unable to break Leeds, despite Dexter Blackstock’s goal on the hour.
