Pocklington in goal for the injured Matt Edwards. Pocklington is on loan from Darlington and was an unplayed sub keeper in the Darlington v Leeds FAYC1 match a few weeks ago.

Leeds had Lees infront of the back four with Delph and Cartman on the left and right with Hotchkiss at the top of the diamond. Ovington and Elliott up front.

Tom Lees went off with a bad injury after 5 mins and was replaced by Sam Jerome

25 Delph put Leeds 1-0 up after a good cross from Ovington
37 Elliott put Leeds 2-0 up after heading in from a corner
4 mins injury time played at the end of the 1st half

2nd half
70 Elliott put Leeds 3-0 up with a shot, after good build up play with a couple of one-twos between Hotchkiss and Ovington
75 Mycoe replaced Fisher at left back
83 Falkingham replaced Ovington.

Overall a comfortable victory, the Leeds defence protected their goal well, and the stand in keeper didn't have a shot to save in open play. Luton's only real effort hit the woodwork from a corner.

The man of the match had to be the Luton keeper Faulds, who made several good saves to keep the scoreline respectable.
