Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa said on Sky Sports Premier League (10:18pm, December 11, 2020) that West Ham United were the better team this evening.
The Whites have gone down 2-1 to West Ham at home in the Premier League.
Mateusz Klich put the home team in the lead after just six minutes when he found the back of the net from the penalty spot.
However, Tomas Soucek made it 1-1 on 25 minutes, and Angelo Ogbonna scored what proved to be the winner in the 80th minute.
After the match at Elland Road, Leeds head coach Bielsa admitted that West Ham were the better team.
Bielsa said on Sky Sports News (10:18pm, December 11, 2020): “It was a fair defeat, the type of game that doesn’t surprise us. We prepared ourselves to face a game of the characteristics that the game had today, and they were superior.”
Bouncing back
The win against Leeds means that West Ham have bounced back from their defeat to Manchester United last weekend.
The Hammers played well in the game, especially in the second half, and manager David Moyes and his players will return to London happy.
The win against Leeds means that West Ham have now moved up to fifth in the Premier League table with 20 points from 12 matches.
The Hammers will return to action on Wednesday evening when they take on Crystal Palace at the London Stadium in the Premier League.
