Whelan said about Leeds on BBC Radio Leeds at full time on Saturday evening (7:29pm, October 27, 2018): “Loads of possession again in the second half, but no real kind of threat when it comes to shots, bodies in and around the 18-yard box, six-yard box, but they managed to get the goal, and that’s all that matters and taking a point away to Wigan.”
Over the course of the 90 minutes at Elland Road on Saturday evening, hosts Leeds had 71% of the possession, took 18 shots of which three were on target, and earned six corners, according to BBC Sport.
Visitors Forest had 29% of the possession, took three shots of which one was on target, and earned three corners, according to BBC Sport.
