Cresswell picked up a second half booking for getting into a shoving match after he felt an opponent left a foot in after the play had been stopped by the referee for a foul on the Leeds defender.

Seconds later, team-mate Greenwood barged into a home defender as the game heated up.

The hosts bagged a third goal in the 65th minute through Giorgi Gocholeishvili and Drameh was taken off in 77th minute for Max Aarons before Greenwood got the final touch as England pulled a goal back four minutes later.
