Welbeck's goal gives Brighton a 1-0 lead over Leeds at half-time. The hosts started brightly and had a great chance just two minutes in, but Gelhardt's volley struck his own team-mate on the line. Brighton grew into the game though and Welbeck took advantage of Llorente's hesitation to latch onto the ball before chipping it over Meslier into the bottom corner. Leeds finished the half brightly though, with Klich forcing Sanchez into a great save.
