Marcelo Bielsa: We have shown superiority

Head coach on Blackburn Rovers win.

Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa spoke to the media following Saturday’s victory over Blackburn Rovers.

Two first half goals from Patrick Bamford and Jack Harrison secured Leeds the three points at a sold out Elland Road.

Bielsa gave his verdict on the match, which was Leeds’ fourth successive victory on home soil.

“We have shown superiority, we received just one shot on our goal,” said Bielsa.

“After we scored twice, we had 10 or 12 chances.

“In the first and the second half we had a lot of spaces to attack and we didn’t take advantage of that as much as we should.

“(At two-nil) it was difficult to think that the opponent could score, but after when they scored, everything has changed.

“When you win, more than be happy, you are calm.”

Bielsa also spoke about Patrick Bamford who stepped up to score a first half penalty.

He said: “I think this player is a big character, a big personality.

“He took the responsibility to score again and it wasn’t easy for him.”
