00:01Leeds United looked set to claim their first Premier League away win since September before
00:06Tammy Abraham struck a dramatic late equaliser for Aston Villa. Yet while fans showed their
00:12frustration, Daniel Farker's reaction at full-time revealed much about the manager's pride in his
00:17side's performance. Despite the heartbreak, Leeds held their composure throughout the match.
00:23Farker's signature three-arm raise to the visiting crowd, usually reserved for victories only,
00:28they underlined his respect for the team's effort and tactical discipline. Fans vocal throughout
00:34acknowledged the players' work with applause, highlighting the growing bond between manager
00:39and squad. On the pitch, Leeds' defensive organisation in press. Wide centre-halves Pascal Strzok and James
00:47Justin were allowed into midfield to track Villa attackers, ensuring little space from Ileano
00:53Buendia or Morgan Rodgers, while the backline stayed disciplined. Early interventions, including
00:59timely offsides and goalkeeping commands from Carl Darlow, kept Villa at bay for much of the game.
01:06Anton Stack also made a mark with a stunning long-range free kick, one of the match's standout
01:11moments. While the late equaliser denied a win, Farker's body language and Leeds' resilience sends
01:17a clear message. The team is growing in confidence, learning from mistakes and building the mentality
01:24needed to challenge at the top end of the table.
