Leeds beat Forest again to reach League Cup third round

Leeds United secured another win over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, advancing to the third round of the League Cup. This victory marked the team's second triumph against the Premier League rivals in just four days. The match at the City Ground saw Dan James put Leeds ahead in the 50th minute with a well-struck shot to the top left corner.

Later, in the 75th minute, there was a goalmouth scramble that initially saw Neco Williams incorrectly awarded an own-goal, but it was later corrected to be credited to James Justin. Earlier, Leeds had faced the Premier League team on Saturday, winning the match 1-0 away. Meanwhile, other promoted sides like Coventry City, Ipswich Town, and Hull City also advanced to the next round, with mixed results in their respective matches.

Coventry City beat League One Plymouth Argyle 4-2, Ipswich Town triumphed 3-1 over League One Leicester City, and Hull City secured a 5-4 victory on penalties against Championship side Stoke City after drawing 1-1 in regulation time.
