Championship Round Up 10 August
10/08/2024
Brenden Aaronson’s equaliser in the fifth minute of stoppage time salvaged a thrilling 3-3 draw for Leeds against newly-promoted Portsmouth.
Pascal Struijk’s penalty gave Leeds an early lead at Elland Road, but Pompey responded through summer signing Elias Sorensen and Callum Lang’s thumping drive.
Willy Gnonto hauled the hosts level early in the second period, but they needed Aaronson’s late heroics to rescue a point after Lang notched his second from the spot.
There was still time for Aaronson to have won it for Leeds in the closing moments, but he somehow dragged his shot wide from arguably the best chance of the match.
Mileta Rajovic nodded home a late winner for Watford as they claimed a 3-2 victory at Millwall.
The Lions thought they had fought back to at least take a share of the spoils with two second-half goals from Duncan Watmore after Edo Kayembe and Giorgi Chakvetadze had put Watford firmly in control.
Josh Maja scored a hat-trick as West Brom came from behind to beat QPR 3-1 at Loftus Road.
Lucas Andersen put the hosts ahead in the 16th minute, but Albion responded emphatically with Maja’s treble.
Oxford made a dream start to their first season back in English football’s second tier for 25 years with a 2-0 victory over Norwich.
A goal in each half by Mark Harris and Cameron Brannagan made it a disappointing opening match for the Canaries’ new boss Johannes Hoff Thorup.
Middlesbrough won on the opening day for the first time in a decade as Emmanuel Latte Lath carried over his blistering form from last season with the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Swansea.
Oscar Estupinan’s last-minute penalty earned Hull a 1-1 draw against Bristol City after Fally Mayulu’s 84th-minute strike had put the visitors on course for victory.
Sunderland began the Regis Le Bris era on a high as Luke O’Nien and Jack Clarke handed them a 2-0 victory at Cardiff, while Lewis Baker scored with 12 minutes left to secure a 1-0 home win for Stoke against Coventry.
