Leeds United faced off against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park earlier tonight as they looked to earn a positive result on the road. The Whites kept a solid shape in the first half and went into the half-time break with a goalless scoreline.
Both sides fought tooth and nail in the second half as the match finished 0-0 with Jesse Marsch’s men coming away with a point from the English capital.
Let’s take a look at how each Leeds United player performed during the clash against the Eagles.

Substitutes:
CB: Robin Koch – 6.5/10
Koch kept a clean sheet in the second half.
