Former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has weighed in on the contentious penalty decision in Leeds United's defeat to Burnley. He believes referee James Bell made the correct call, as Joe Worrall got a touch of the ball before bringing down Manor Solomon.
Former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has delivered his verdict on the controversial penalty call in Leeds United 's loss to Burnley . Whites chief Daniel Farke was convinced his side should have been given a spot kick in the first half of the Elland Road clash after Manor Solomon went down under a challenge from Joe Worrall.
Farke refused to be downhearted following their first Championship loss of the season. “Of course it's the most frustrating thing in football when you go back to the dressing room and can hardly explain why you didn't win this game,” Farke said. "We should have a penalty again. Many corners but the only team who scores out of a corner is them, from a corner for us. Manor is there with the wrong decision, decided to turn around, didn't have to take this risk, he slipped and they were away with an 85-yard counter. Congratulations and credit to them for a good finish.
“It's quite natural, they are invited to drop deeper and deeper, of course it's difficult. Many of our key players were feeling a bit more the load in the second half due to the international duties. We substitute some of them who are normally always on the pitch.
