Leeds boss Daniel Farke to TNT Sports: "We were pushing to win this game and were relentless. We showed great spirit, commitment and unity. It was a fully deserved win."

On Jayden Bogle's foul on Mathys Tel: "I haven't watched it back. I have heard there were several doubtful situations. A possible hand ball. I just know that Jayden Bogle out of any bad intention. It looked like a coming together.

"It's very unlucky outcome that Mathys is injured and we wish him all the best and he can recover quickly. The last thing Jayden Bogle is a nasty player. He's possibly the softest player in the whole league. I always call him my butterfly, and I can guarantee it was never out of bad intention."
