Leeds boss Daniel Farke, speaking to BBC Match of the Day after their goalless draw with Crystal Palace: “I would trust my lads with my life. We are not perfect, but the mentality in the dressing room is second to none. In the circumstances, in a difficult away game, we defended the whole time and we didn’t give any chances away.
"I think in the end, we had a higher expected goals than our opponents. Fantastic spirit, defending, clean sheet, and a point away."
On the red card: “Everyone in the stadium can see [it was the wrong decision]. It was doubtful if it was even a foul. For me, it was a clear mistake.”
On the missed penalty: “You have to accept that you can miss the biggest chances. I am just proud of how we defended. Even in the second half, there was even moments where we thought we could win the game.”
