The Bees deservedly led at the break through Kevin Schade but Leeds’ improved second-half showing was rewarded.

The Egyptian forward set up Curtis Jones’ opener before Kevin Schade levelled for the Bees, who missed out on European football by goal difference.

Tammy Abraham’s second-half strike was chalked off after a three-minute check at Villa Park.

Goals from Kevin Schade and Yoane Wissa inflicted a damaging defeat, which leaves Forest sixth.
