Leeds coach: 'We were better than Arsenal'

Speaking after the match, Jesse Marsch, the coach of Leeds United said: "A really good performance from us. Discipline, concentration over the entire match even with the late start and everything that was strange on the day.

"A performance that showed when we play the way that we want to play, we can be very good. Very good. So that’s the best team in the league right now, and today we were better. We were better.

"We’re making it hard on ourselves by not capitalising on moments when we’re on top of games. We should be up in this match, even in the second half we could score four or five goals and we would walk out of here feeling like it was the perfect match.

"We’ve had a number of games where we’ve been on top of things, been the better team and we don’t find ways to get the goals that we deserve in those moments. And then it keeps the opponent around or gives them the chance to find a goal or to find the lead, which makes the game and the sport feel very cruel."

Bukoya Saka's goal was the difference in a game that Leeds had a penalty and other opportunities.
