Mark Viduka snatched a 1-1 draw for Leeds United against league leaders Manchester United with an 84th minute header at Elland Road today.

Luke Chadwick opened the scoring for Manchester in the 64th minute with a close range finish after Leeds goalkeeper Nigel Martyn could only parry an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer shot.

But the home side, who missed a first half penalty by Ian Harte, extended their unbeaten run to eight matches in all competitions when Viduka leveled the score.

Leeds, who created the better chances, then had the frustration of seeing Wes Brown's 89th minute own goal, that would have handed them victory, disallowed for offside. - Reuters
