Nick Barmby repaid a considerable slice of his summer fee by sparing Leeds’ UEFA Cup blushes as manager Terry Venables’ side scraped through to the second round.

Leeds started both legs of this first-round tie against Ukrainian unknowns Metalurg Zaporizhia as competition favourites, along with Lazio, but the bookies will surely be having a rethink following a below-par eastern European performance.
