Gillingham 1-1 Leeds

Veteran Ian Cox headed an injury-time goal to earn Gillingham a 1-1 draw and deny nine-man Leeds a record eighth straight win to start the season.

Cox powered home Barry Cogan's corner after Leeds strikers Jermaine Beckford and Tresor Kandol had been sent off.

The visitors took a 28th-minute lead when Seb Carole headed his first goal for the club.

But referee Danny McDermid dismissed Kandol for a second offence before half-time and then Beckford for a foul.
