Ruben Amorim reaction

On his players being up for the fight and if he was pleased with the performance: "I think we played well. I think we had more control in this game than we showed against Wolverhampton. And that is important that you can prepare the next week and learn from the mistakes that we show in the last game. I think we control quite well the team of Leeds, the team that is really strong on set pieces and second balls, really quick up front. I think we controlled well. We had our opportunities to win the game of course. We are losing games in the details. The goal of Leeds we are controlling the game and one kick in the ball in transition. But we managed to get back in the game. Last year would be completely different. This year I think we are in control of the games more often than last year. Was a good game but of course a little bit frustrated not to win."

On having to use so many young players and accepting that mistakes will happen: "If you look Ayden and Leny are really young. Also, it was not because of that. If you play so well during 90 minutes and you have a mistake, that can happen with Ayden or Harry Maguire who is really experienced, those things are going to happen. If you look at the game we have chances to score the second one and win the game and nobody would be talking about the goal of Leeds."
