Leeds United boss Daniel Farke was left pleased after their rout of Wolves on Saturday.

James Justin, Noah Okafor and Dominic Calvert-Lewin with a penalty were Leeds' goalscorers.

“During the game, it still felt like you always have to be switched on in each of your moments,” said Farke.

“If you calm down then you have to say it was probably a relatively comfortable 3-0 win, also fully deserved because we also dominated each statistic. 

“I was a bit nervous before this game because for me, a game after such a historical night at Old Trafford is always difficult. 

“And especially once you have a home game with big expectation against a rock bottom side in the league because then everyone expects, okay, it will be a bit, bit easier but Wolves is a good side. 

“They have shown us with more than decent performances and more than decent results also in the last couple of months. There were one or two nervy moments during the second half.

“But we put the right tackle in also one top-class save from Karl Darlow in the right moment, in order to make this game not a too nervy game. Then to bury the game with a third goal feels quite good! 

“A massive, a massive step forward and a very crucial win. This team has a very strong mentality and delivers, especially under pressure, to be there with some of our best performances during the season.”
