SHOCKING NEWS:Leeds United announce the suspension of coach Daniel Farke due to…
Warne took his 15th-placed Rams side to Elland Road in the bid to bounce back from last weekend’s 2-1 loss at home to Sheffield Wednesday but Derby suffered another reverse after goals from Joe Rodon and Max Wober gave Leeds a 2-0 success.
Warne’s side initially kept Leeds at bay until Rodon headed home a Joe Rothwell corner with 39 minutes on the clock. Up until that point, Warne had been pleased with his side’s efforts to “frustrate” the hosts.
But Max Wober then doubled the Whites advantage just five minutes later for a goal that Warne admitted was a big blow just before the interval.
Wober’s strike proved the final goal of the game – a contest that Leeds dominated – and Warne served up huge praise for the Whites in his post match press conference.
The Derby boss readily admitted there was a “gulf in class” as he predicted that Daniel Farke’s Whites would be “right up there” as one of the best teams in the division.
Warne also also admitted he had never felt so “uncomfortable” on the sidelines and that Leeds had his team under more pressure than in recent defeats at promotion rivals Sheffield United and Sunderland. Warne had expressed his view before the game that Leeds were the best team in the league.
