Beckford brace gives Leeds a boost

Jermaine Beckford scored both goals in the home 2-0 win over Millwall to kickstart Leeds faltering promotion push. And boy did Leeds need a win.

Beckford wasted three other chances but his 32nd-minute goal was pure class.

The move covered almost the length of the Elland Road field as wingers Andy Robinson and Robert Snodgrass combined to ferry the ball to Beckford, who cut into the penalty box on the right and curled a sublime left-footed shot into the far top corner.



Beckford pounced again in injury time for his 23rd goal of the season, shooting past David Forde when Ankergren's long kick was helped on by substitute Luciano Becchio.
