Leeds United and Bournemouth are level at half time, after Ross McCormack missed a first-half penalty.

Leeds were the first to threaten with striker McCormack having an early shot saved in the fifth minute.

Despite a cagey opening period, Bournemouth grew into the game and came close when Lewis Grabban picked up the ball 30 yards out, dropped his shoulder and unleashed a wild effort that flew just over the bar.

However, Leeds had the opportunity to take the lead in the 33rd minute when McCormack stepped up to take the penalty as Noel Hunt was brought down by Ryan Allsop, with the keeper also being sent off.

Yet the striker's kick was saved by substitute Darryl Flahavan, who dived to his left to keep the ball out and ensure the score stayed 0-0 going into half time.
