Leeds drew 2-2 with Derby County on Wednesday night.
Leeds United goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald conceded another two goals against Derby County on Wednesday night as the Rams scored a late equaliser at Pride Park – and a handful of fans have blamed the German stopper.
The 27-year-old is currently feeling the pressure after being at fault for Bristol City’s opener on Sunday afternoon, coming to claim a corner but getting absolutely nowhere near the ball before Famara Diedhiou pounced.
The former Werder Bremen ace could do nothing about Derby’s two goals on Wednesday night, as Leeds earned a point away from home. But criticism has still come the German’s way.
Leeds conceded in the 92nd minute as a high ball into the penalty area was not dealt with, and Chelsea loanee Kasey Palmer profited by rifling the ball into the corner of Wiedwald’s net from eight yards out.
The Whites had taken the lead through Pierre-Michel Lasogga, only for Andy Weimann to peg Paul Heckingbottom’s side back just before half-time. Ezgjan Alioski restored the lead, only for Palmer to score late on.
Leeds fans believe that although Wiedwald could do nothing about Palmer’s shot, there should have been more communication from the goalkeeper to help Liam Cooper and the other Leeds defenders.
One fan went as far as saying Wiedwald “cost us”.
