Leeds boosted their play-off hopes with a comfortable win at Leyton Orient.

O's defender Tamika Mkandawire had to clear off the line moments before Jermaine Beckford put the ball in the net, only to be ruled offside.

Paul Huntington did put Leeds ahead when he got the final touch to a Bradley Johnson free-kick.

O's keeper Glenn Morris saved from Jonathan Howson and Dougie Freedman before Freedman crossed from the left for Beckford to slot home.
