Souleymane Doukara endured a Friday night to forget at the New York Stadium.
When scoring goals is a major problem for your side, your strikers need to pull their weight.
In 12 Championship games, Leeds have scored just 12 Championship goals. And Rotherham, who have scored even less, still managed to put two past them last night.
It was another frustrating fixture for Darko Milanic, who is now four games without a win as Leeds United manager.
What must Neil Redfearn be thinking? And what must Billy Sharp be thinking that he was only given a handful of minutes last night?
For the man he replaced, Souleymane Doukara, endured a Friday night to forget at the New York Stadium.
| Shots | On Target | Chances Created | Passing Accuracy | Dribbles Won | Aerial Dules Won | Touches | Mins Played | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mirco Antenucci | 4 | 2 | 0 | 75% | 1 | 0 | 38 | 90 |
| Rodolph Austin | 4 | 0 | 1 | 89% | 2 | 1 | 74 | 90 |
| Adryan | 3 | 1 | 1 | 67% | 2 | 0 | 19 | 27 |
| Souleymane Doukara | 2 | 0 | 1 | 62% | 0 | 0 | 41 | 76 |
As Opta stats show, the 23-year-old did not manage a shot on target against Rotherham United, while his passing accuracy was a very poor 62 per cent.
Doukara did create one chance and got involved in his side’s build-up play, taking 41 touches. But how many dribbles did he win? And how many people did he beat in the air?
The Leeds striker produced a frustrating performance against Sheffield Wednesday in the Yorkshire derby a couple of weeks ago. But his second Yorkshire derby in a row did not provide a second coming.
It was more of a case of Doukara Disappoints against the Millers – and Milanic will be looking for far more from the Frenchman in future.
