Leeds United manager Neil Warnock has praised his side's "never-say-die" attitude as they came from behind twice to earn a 2-2 draw at Brighton & Hove Albion on Friday night.

El-Hadji Diouf's penalty cancelled out Craig Mackail-Smith's opener before substitute Luciano Becchio deflected Michael Brown's shot into the net following another Mackail-Smith strike.

"This match shows what the Championship is all about. It was a superb point for us," Warnock told Sky Sports News.

"But all credit to us - we showed a never-say-die attitude and came back strongly in the first half.

"It was a great game to watch, Brighton looked a really strong outfit. We more than played our part and there are no easy matches in the Championship."

Friday's point has moved Leeds up to 10th place in the Championship table.
