Disasi draws West Ham level with 96th-minute equaliser

Axel Disasi scored a 96th-minute equaliser for West Ham to briefly rescue their FA Cup quarter-final against Leeds before the visitors went on to win the tie on penalties.

West Ham had trailed 2-0, but their late comeback forced extra time at the London Stadium on Sunday, April 5, 2026. The match finished 2-2 after extra time, setting up a shootout that Leeds won 4-2.

The equaliser came deep into stoppage time and changed the mood of the tie, but Leeds recovered to keep their composure in the shootout. Lucas Perri made two saves before Pascal Struijk converted the decisive penalty.

The FA and Leeds United both confirmed the full sequence of events in official match reports, with Sky Sports and ESPN also reporting Disasi's 90+6 goal.

For West Ham, Disasi's goal had briefly completed a remarkable comeback. In the end, though, Leeds still advanced to the semi-finals and ended a 39-year wait for another appearance at that stage.

The equaliser may have turned the quarter-final into a drama, but it did not prevent Leeds from going through at the final hurdle.
