00:00Leeds United won by one goal to nil against Everton at Ellen Road in their first match of the Premier League season thanks to a late penalty from Lucas Nemecha, scored after a controversial handball decision given against James Tarkovsky.
00:13Yes, that's one of the days when you once started to play football and also became a supporter of a team so I was sacked on the atmosphere here today in our fortress, Ellen Road, Monday night, floodlights are on, sold out to the stadium.
00:27First game since a while on Premier League level and then such a dominant performance and hard fought but I think also well-deserved win in the end.
00:35As a newly promoted side in the first home game to be there with three points, clean sheet win, well-deserved win, also a good level of, very good level of performance.
00:44Couldn't be much better tonight and yes, tonight I'm a happy man.
00:48There was a level of intensity about the performance which I think is absolutely necessary at this level now in this league, isn't it?
00:55That's the minimum requirement here.
00:57Absolutely, so I was a bit worried at half-time because we played so dominant in the first half, I think nearly 70 per cent per session, 12 shots already, 21 in the end.
01:06I was thinking if you play that good normally on this level you have to, during the good periods, you have to reward yourself also like with scoring a goal.
01:14And Bradford City came back from one goal down to defeat Stockport County by two-olds to one away from home.
01:20Just about, I think, yeah, the game of two-halves sort of analogy is really clear there.
01:28I thought they were far away the better team in the first half, completely dominant, we struggled to get to grips with the game really.
01:37And yeah, it could have been much worse at half-time if we were being honest, you know, I said that to half-time to the lads, listen, at least it's only 1-0.
01:45We know we can score goals, that's the thing, that's the last sentence I said.
01:50And we started in great fashion in the second half and took the game to them, we were just much closer to them.
01:57We put them under pressure, every player under pressure, and it got us back in the game.
02:02Two great goals from our perspective, brilliant thinking from Max and Humps with a quick free kick and Swanee's in there to get our tap in.
02:10And then the second goal part has helped it back in.
