Leeds United boss Daniel Farke has explained the “full story” behind Patrick Bamford’s Stoke City penalty and the course of action next time for his Whites.
Farke's side were presented with a golden opportunity to go ahead with just 16 minutes left of Wednesday night's Championship clash at Stoke when second-half substitute Bamford was felled in the area just three minutes after coming on. Despite having missed his last two penalties, Bamford stepped up to take the spot kick himself but sent his effort over the bar and Stoke instead bagged the only goal of the game four minutes later.
' Explaining then why Bamford stepped up to the plate just three minutes after coming on, Farke continued: 'In this case it was difficult, because the only offensive player who was still on the pitch was Georginio Rutter. He sadly missed the other night in the cup game - a penalty not in the best way. And we just had the back four and the two holding midfielders on the pitch who were there.
