Loan round-up: White continues to catch the eye

The 21-year-old has played every minute of league action for Marcelo Balsa’s men so far this term, and Leeds boast the best defensive record in the division. They have conceded just eight goals, with the next best defence conceding 12.

Meanwhile in the same game, Jan Mlakar came off the bench for the visitors with 72 minutes played, replacing Nahki Wells for Mark Warburton’s men.

There was also a clean sheet for fellow Albion defender Matt Clarke, as Derby County were 2-0 winners over Middlesbrough at Pride Park Stadium, with a goal in either half from Tom Lawrence being enough for Philip Cocu’s men to claim three points.

Christian Walton and Blackburn Rovers left it to late to seal a 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday at Ewood Park. The visitors had taken the lead with seven minutes to play thanks to Jacob Murphy, but an equaliser from Tosin Adarabioyo and an injury-time winner for John Buckley gave Tony Mowbray’s men a dramatic win.

Elsewhere in the same division, Jayson Molumby and Millwall were on the wrong end of a 2-1 scoreline away to Reading at the Madejski Stadium. Jordan Obita and former Seagull Sam Baldock had put the visitors two goals to the good, and Jed Wallace’s effort just past the hour mark proved to be no more than a consolation. To the east in the capital a day later, Beram Kayal and Charlton Athletic lost 1-0 at home to Preston North End in the Sunday lunchtime kick-off at The Valley.

In non-league action on home soil, James Tilley and Yeovil Town drew 1-1 away to Boreham Wood in the National League to keep the Glovers in second position and one point behind league leaders Bromley.

Kasper Lopata and Whitehawk were 2-0 winners over Burgess Hill Town in the Isthmian League South East division, while Carl Rushworth and Worthing drew 2-2 away to Cray Wanderers in the Isthmian Premier Division in the league above.
