LONDON (AP) — Leeds survived in the Premier League for another season after Jack Harrison’s injury-time goal sealed a tense 2-1 win over nine-man Brentford. Leeds had a first-half goal by Joe Gelhardt ruled out for a narrow offside on video review but finally took the lead when Raphinha scored from the penalty spot in the 56th. Sergi Canos headed Brentford level in the 78th only to dent his team’s chances with a sending-off for two yellow cards in quick succession soon after. Jack Harrison scored the winner for Leeds in added time. Leeds could still have been relegated if Burnley had matched its result with a win at home to Newcastle. Burnley lost the game 2-1.
