Half-Time Report: Mirco Antenucci gives Leeds United the advantage

Mirco Antenucci gives Leeds United the advantage with his sixth goal of the season against Derby County in the Championship.

Mirco Antenucci's late goal has given Leeds United a 1-0 advantage at half time against Derby County at Elland Road in the Championship.

On-loan Liverpool youngster Jordon Ibe found Jeff Hendrick early on but the latter dragged his shot wide from the edge of the box shortly before Chris Martin's heavy touch thwarted a decent move.

Ibe was once again at the heart of the move when he danced down the left before the half-hour mark but Martin could only poke his teammate's cross wide of the post.

Alex Mowatt forced Lee Grant into a save with a long-range effort before Souleymane Doukara dragged a shot wide for the visitors from around 25 yards out.

With the first half petering out, Antenucci struck with two minutes of normal time remaining to give the home side the lead over the high-flying Rams.
