Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa spoke to the media following the New Year’s Day draw with West Brom.

The Whites began the new decade with Patrick Bamford’s deflected header earning Leeds a 1-1 draw at the Hawthorns.

Bielsa gave his verdict on the match and was pleased with the spectacle created between the top two sides in the division.

“I think we should have won the match, but also we could have lost the match,” said Bielsa.

“How we managed the game was very good, but there were chances in both boxes.

“Maybe our chances were a little more possible and after we built some situations that we couldn’t finish in a chance.

“I am very happy with the match we played, the kind of match we played.

“Two sides played the match, no speculation, without violence and kept within the rules.

“Nobody wanted to take advantage or use the rules to get an advantage.

“West Brom are a team with good intentions, they play differently to us, it was a clash of two different styles.

“They have great strikers, we managed the match, but we could not avoid them creating clear chances.”
