Colchester 2-1 Leeds
Jamie Cureton's last-minute winner for Colchester sent Leeds crashing back into the Championship relegation zone.

The visitors looked on course for a third-straight win when Eddie Lewis unleashed a left-footed drive inside the left post early in the second half.

But Colchester fought back through Chris Iwelumo, who headed home a Karl Duguid free-kick on 82 minutes.

Cureton then pounced to meet Hogan Ephraim's cross from the left to steer home a dramatic winner.


  • Colchester manager Geraint Williams:
    "It was a hard-fought win and a bit of a scrappy game. But the lads kept going.

    "The players are writing their own bit of history here and they are doing a great job."

  • Leeds manager Dennis Wise:
    "People haven't done their jobs. We asked them to be in a certain place and they were not.

    "They were poor goals to concede because we had looked comfortable.But we had a mad 10 or 12 minutes where we didn't defend properly."
