Lukas Nmecha stepped off the bench to fire a stoppage-time winner as Leeds marked their tribute to former player Terry Yorath with a 1-0 win at Elland Road against Fulham.

Nmecha, an 81st-minute replacement for Jayden Bogle, latched on to skipper Ethan Ampadu’s cross in the first minute of added time to clinch victory, which keeps Leeds eight points clear of the Premier League’s relegation zone.
