Leeds United fell to their first defeat of the season at Elland Road.
Sam Byram admits the Leeds United squad are ‘gutted’ after seeing their unbeaten home run ended by Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. Leeds dropped points for the fourth time in five games, Sammie Sczmodics capitalising on some slack defending to score the only goal of the game on 82 minutes. Blackburn had 25 per cent possession at Elland Road and found the net with just their second shot on target.
They’re obviously desperate for points and we know at this stage of the season, games will be like this and a loss is not what we wanted.” In another ridiculous weekend in the Championship promotion race, both Leicester City and Ipswich Town also dropped points. Leicester lost at home to Plymouth Argyle on Friday evening, with Ipswich unable to open up a gap at the top after drawing 1-1 at home to Middlesbrough.
