Leeds United Head Coach Daniel Farke has deflected blame from goalkeeper Lucas Perri after he conceded two goals including a free kick against Aston Villa in the Premier League, whilst Bradford City’s Ibou Touray believes that the Bantams came away from Bolton Wanderers with a good point in League One.
00:00Leeds United goalkeeper Lucas Perry was not to blame, according to head coach Daniel Farker,
00:06despite Perry conceding two goals in the White's loss against Aston Villa, including a free kick from Morgan Rodgers.
00:14Yes, also the fact today that they had a top-class goalkeeper, I think also the save against Brandon Evans in the first half was also outstanding.
00:22So if you have a world-class goalkeeper in your goal, who is in there with more or less reaction in the decisive moments that always help.
00:32But I don't want to blame today Lucas Perry for this situation, because this was not his case, why we conceded the goal.
00:40It was a bit decisive that out of their very rare moments, they were able to score two times.
00:47I think it's not like to say, come on, out of our situation, we have to score three or four more goals.
00:51We have to return back to our really solid defensive behaviour and make sure that we protect our clean sheet anyhow.
00:58And a bit annoyed that straight away after halftime, 47 minutes, it was not like we were tired or the game was open anyhow.
01:05Easy situation to orientate and to concentrate and to organise.
01:09And on our left side, we were too slow in order to do this and allow them the situation.
01:14And Bradford City's Ibu Toure said that the Bantams' goalless draw away from home against Bolton Wanderers in League One was a good point for his side.
01:26Bradford have not won for several matches in League One, but the point made sure that they remained inside the top three of the division, with the top two going up automatically.
01:36Yeah, good points, well thought by the lads. We stuck together, we defended really well and we attacked really well as well, to be honest.
01:44I think on another day we could have came away with the three points, but it's a tough place to come against a real informed team.
01:49So, yeah, I think it's a decent result in the end.
01:52As a defender, and obviously you mentioned the team themselves, to get a clean sheet as well, you must be really pleased with that.
01:57So, yeah, really pleased. I think it's important for the confidence of the team and the defence to keep clean sheets.
02:04We haven't kept as many as we'd like in the recent weeks, so yeah, really, really good clean sheet today against probably one of the best attacks in the league on paper, I'm guessing.
