West Ham United and Leeds United played out a draw in their FA Cup quarter-final at London Stadium on Sunday. The match entered a lengthy period of added time following several interruptions during the second half. Officials added 11 minutes of stoppage time to the final whistle, according to Sky Sports.
The additional time resulted from multiple factors including VAR reviews, player injuries, and substitutions. Referee Jarred Gillett monitored the delays throughout the half to ensure accurate timekeeping, per The Guardian. Both sides had opportunities to secure a late winner during the extended period, but the score remained level.
The result means the two clubs must contest a replay to decide which team progresses to the semi-final at Wembley. West Ham previously defeated Bristol City and Sheffield Wednesday to reach this stage. Leeds reached the final eight after victories against Peterborough United, Plymouth Argyle, and Chelsea earlier in the competition. The FA will announce the date for the replay later this week.
