Review
Leeds keeper Sprake was injured in just the second minute and went off the field. Norman Hunter took his place in goal, the sub wasn't used, and Sprake came back on in the 15th minute! We scored during that time, but Leeds came back with two first-half goals of their own and knocked us out of the FA Cup
