Leeds United forward comments after win.

Leeds United's Kemar Roofe during the Sky Bet Championship match between  City and Leeds United at Liberty Stadium on August 21, 2018 in Swansea, Wales.

Kemar Roofe has reflected on Tuesday night’s narrow win over Reading.

Leeds won 1-0 with Stuart Dallas scoring the winner.

The real story was goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell saving a penalty in the 89th minute when Leeds thought they had blown the win.

Roofe says the game ‘played with his emotions’, and thanked supporters for sticking by the team.

Roofe came close to scoring in the second half and adding to his tally for the season.

He is Leeds’ top scorer despite missing a month of action and is crucial to the team’s success.

Leeds are just one point off the top of the table, with rivals Middlesbrough and Norwich both dropping points.

If they had failed to capitalise, it would have been even more frustrating.
