Maupay opened the scoring
They now trail second-place Sheffield United by three points with a significantly inferior goal difference and just two games remaining.Leeds began the Bank Holiday weekend in second with a three-point cushion of their own – and their collapse will feel all-too familiar for the club’s supporters.Today’s defeat follows the shocking loss to Wigan at Elland Road, after the struggling Latics came from a goal down to win with ten men. Despite being denied a blatant penalty early in the first-half when Julian Jeanvier clattered into Patrick Bamford, Leeds can have few complaints about the outcome at Griffin Park.Maupay was clinical at the end of the first-half after the visitors had spurned a host of promising opportunities.The Bees’ top scorer latched onto a fantastic through-ball from Canos before expertly slotting beyond Kiko Casilla.
