Leeds United, Rotherham United finishes goalless

Leeds United's season finishes with a whimper as they play out a goalless draw with Rotherham at Elland Road.

Leeds United's season finished with a whimper as they played out a goalless draw with Rotherham United at Elland Road.

The Millers' supporters were in full voice having watched their side secure their place in the Championship next season earlier this week, but there was little in the way of goalmouth action in the first half.

Danny Ward fired wide from a free kick on 17 minutes before Sol Bamba missed the target for Leeds on 21 minutes.

Lee Frecklington's inviting cross was narrowly missed by Daniel Lafferty as Rotherham pressed for opener before the half-hour mark.

Leeds's first real chance fell to Liam Cooper, who managed to flick Alex Mowatt's cross at goal, but Emiliano Martinez did well to get down low and save.

Steve Morison linked up well with Mowatt early in the second half, but the latter saw his shot deflect wide for a corner before Martinez saved a header from the delivery.

Leeds were afforded a good chance after the hour mark when they were given a free kick around 20 yards out, but Mowatt could only curl it over the bar.

Bamba fed the ball through to Billy Sharp on 68 minutes, but the striker's effort did not trouble Martinez.

The stalemate means that Neil Redfearn's side finish 15th in the Championship table, while Steve Evans's charges end the campaign in 20th.
