Leeds manager Daniel Farke speaking to BBC Match of the Day after his side’s defeat to Tottenham: “[We needed] to score more goals from our big chances. We had two big mistakes. Football is sometimes like this. That’s the way it goes in the first half. Second half our player slipped and that was an invitation to Kudus.
“We had more than enough chances to win this game. Performance-wise I can just compliment the lads, we won every metric. We are disappointed but the lads should be pleased with their performance.
“Six goals in the last three games for a newly-promoted side is not too bad. But yeah if their goalkeeper is man of the match.
“Sometimes you need just a scruffy goal, a bit like they scored today. Today, against such a good opponent – Tottenham are in the Champions League, they are towards the top of the table – we missed too many chances to get something.
“If you see the whole picture, but it doesn’t take the disappointment away. We were the better side against such a top team. It says a lot about my team that we are on the such a good path.
“Nevertheless is it was such a top performance from my lads and we will keep going in this way.”
