LEEDS, England : Newcastle United suffered more jitters in their quest to finish in the Premier League's top four as they drew 2-2 at relegation-threatened Leeds United but Southampton's agony is over after being relegated on Saturday.

Southampton's relegation has looked a certainty for a while and their decade-long stay in the top flight was officially over after a 2-0 home defeat by Fulham. The battle to avoid joining Southampton in the second tier remains fierce, though, with 16th-placed Nottingham Forest earning a point in a 2-2 draw at Chelsea.

Joelinton bundled over Junior Firpo in the box to give Leeds a penalty but Bamford's spot-kick was saved by Nick Pope. "In the space of a few minutes in the first half when we get a second penalty to go 2-0 up, I think I'd be here saying what a great three points that was today," Leeds interim manager Sam Allardyce said."We shot ourselves in the foot."
