Leeds United Take 1-0 Win Over Derby Into Second Leg 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun May 12, 2019 1:02 am

Leeds United will take a 1-0 lead over Derby County into the second leg of the semifinals of the Championship playoff.

Marcelo Bielsa said it was a fair result for his side.

“I think it was a fair win...One-nil is an advantage. But not a decisive one,\" said Bielsa.

Lampard, who accused Bielsa of spying on his side earlier this season, criticized an incident in which his side was awarded a penalty that was later overturned.

\"The astounding thing is that once the referee gives it, as he’s the boss on the pitch, he then consults his linesman. You’d think there’d be some big information that the referee hasn’t seen but I don’t think that’s the case. [It was] VAR without the computer system. Human VAR. I’m not sure it was a penalty but once he’s given it, it’s strange to say the least. I’ve never seen a decision turn unless there’s something absolutely clear that hasn’t been seen and that certainly isn’t the case.”
