Ian Wright has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Jesse Marsch’s Leeds United losing to Leicester City.

Leeds have suffered a 1-0 defeat to Leicester away from home at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League this afternoon.

Harvey Barnes scored the only goal of the game midway through the first half.

Arsenal legend Wright was following the match, and he was stunned that Leeds could not take the chances that they created.

You can see the BBC Sport pundit’s tweet below.

Disappointing for Leeds United

In our view, Leeds will be disappointed at the final result and should have at least picked up a point.

The Whites were better defensively under new head coach Marsch than under Marcello Bielsa and kept things tight at the back.

Leeds created a number of chances and asked a lot of questions of the Leicester defence.

However, the West Yorkshire club failed to take those chances.

Leeds took as many 19 shots, but only four of them were on target.

Now, Leicester will feel that they diid enough to win today, but we think that a draw would have been a fair result.
