DANIEL FARKE: WE ARE DISAPPOINTED - Leedsunited.com 30/8/23

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke spoke exclusively to LUTV following Tuesday’s Carabao Cup penalty shootout defeat against Salford City.

The Whites dominated the match, but were unable to convert opportunities at the Peninsula Stadium.

The Leeds boss gave his verdict on the match and Round Two exit from the competition.

“First of all we are disappointed, because we wanted to go into the next round,” said Farke.

“I feel for the lads, when you judge the game, normally you need to win this game.

“It was an incredible amount of chances that we have created, it’s so difficult to create big chances against a side who is sitting that deep and defends for their lives and for them, it is the game of the season.

“We created so much, it felt like we had enough chances to score five by half time, but the reality is we just scored one in 90 minutes.

“The opponent was one time in our half and they also scored one and we had to accept the draw after 99 minutes with added time and the loss in the penalty shootout.

“It’s disappointing for the lads, but performance wise I can’t really accuse them.”
