Leeds United’s performance in their win over runaway Championship leaders Leicester City came as no surprise to Daniel Farke.
Farke felt his men were well worth their 1-0 victory, which handed the Foxes only their second league defeat of the season and a first since the start of September, having created the better chances and then dug in to defend and restrict Leicester at the other end. Leeds made strong starts to both halves but were only able to take the lead just before the hour mark through Georginio Rutter.
” The winner – a close range effort from a rebound after Sam Byram’s header was saved – ended Rutter’s eight-game goalless run and it was just reward in Farke’s eyes, for the striker’s recent contibution to the team. His chance-creation statistics are the best in the division by some distance and the Frenchman has added five assists in his last 10 outings, but Farke wants to see Rutter hit the net with the same frequency.
