FT
Full-time: Leeds United are off the mark in the Premier League. A fantastic game ends 4-3 to the hosts.
90'+3
Leeds have dropped deeper and deeper. Almost everyone is back to defend. Thirty seconds to go and Odoi blazes over from 25 yards. That will be Fulham's last opportunity.
90'

FOUR minutes will be added on. Have Fulham got anything left?
88'
Yellow card! Mitrovic talks himself into the book. He wanted a penalty for a soft foul - it never was.
87'
Leeds aren't prepared to just waste time; they want more. Roberts wins a free-kick in a dangerous area but Harrison slams it straight into the wall.
85'
Leeds could have settled it as Lemina gives away possession inside his own half. Klich tries to play in Alioski but the pass is poor and Fulham rescue the situation.
82'
Yellow card! Klich goes into the book, the first time the referee has reached for his cards this afternoon.

80'
Into the last 10 minutes. Can Fulham grab another goal? It would be a remarkable comeback, remember they were 4-1 down at one stage.
78'
We've gone 11 minutes without a goal - what is going on?!
75'
Fulham go up the other end and almost level the scores in a pulsating game. Mitrovic's half-volley is straight at Meslier, though. And then Leeds spring an attack immediately after, with Harrison scuffing his shot wide from a tight angle.
74'

Chances! This is relentless! Areola makes a double save to keep Fulham in the game, pushing away Klich's effort and then gathering himself to save Alioski's rebound.
73'
The momentum is with Fulham now, you have to say. There are still 17 minutes left in this game. Plenty left.
71'
Fulham sub: Reed makes way for Mario Lemina.
70'
Leeds sub: Bamford is replaced by Alioski.

GOAL! Leeds 4-3 Fulham (Mitrovic): Beautiful football from Fulham, as they work it out wide to Tete who has been excellent at full-back all afternoon. He stands up a cross for Mitrovic, who towers above his marker and his powerful header beats Meslier. What a game!
64'
Fulham are not quite out of this one yet. The game has been played at a frightening pace and I'd be surprised if there weren't more goals.

GOAL! Leeds 4-2 Fulham (De Cordova Reid): What is going on in the Premier League today?! Fulham have one back. De Cordova Reid, who is just on the pitch, slots it past Meslier with a low and hard strike after a tremendous assist by Anguissa, who was too strong for Philips and played his team mate through with a fine pass.
59'
Fulham subs: Kebano and De Cordova Reid replace Kamara and Onomah.
