Leeds winger Harrison happy with goal in Brighton draw

Leeds winger Jack Harrison was happy to score in their 2-2 draw with Brighton.

Harrison's expertly taken goal 12 minutes from time saw Leeds claim a vital point at home to Roberto De Zerbi's side. A well-worked corner routine allowed Wilfried Gnonto to pick out the former New York City man as he calmly slotted the ball into the far corner from a tight angle inside the box.

It was the second time that Leeds had scored with a spectacular strike after Patrick Bamford's deflected effort in the first half cannoned off the bar and into the net from 20 yards out.

"I think we would have liked to win, especially at home," Harrison told LUTV. "We know they're a tough side and we knew we had to be well prepared defensively and really organised going into this game and I thought we did a good job doing that.

"I just wished we would have capitalised on a couple more chances but a point at this point [in the season] is okay and we just carry on moving forward in the right direction."
