# Newcastle player ratings vs Leeds

Newcastle failed in their attempt to keep the pressure on Championship league leaders, Brighton, when they drew 1-1 at home to Leeds on Friday night.

Garry Monk’s side made it a tough evening for Newcastle, who took the lead through Jamaal Lascelles.

A late strike from the league’s top goalscorer, Chris Wood was enough to seal a point for the visitors. The point leaves Newcastle sitting second in the table, four points behind Brighton.
