Goalscorer Dallas says Leeds deserved victory over Tottenham

Leeds United goalscorer Stuart Dallas says they deserved victory over Tottenham.

Playing on the wing this afternoon, Dallas once again showed his versatility and also his eye for a goal, as he got the scoring underway by netting in the 13th minute and helped his team to bounce back from defeat last weekend.

“I think we owed a performance," Dallas explained.

“Last week we were well below the standards we have set ourselves throughout the season. We were disappointed we didn't put in a performance last week so it was important we bounced back today.

“I thought from the very first minute we were on it today. We were pressing, had aggression to win the ball back and when we were on the ball the quality was there.

“I think in the first half we dominated the game, we were disappointed how we conceded the goal of course.

“Possibly got a bit of luck with the Harry Kane goal being offside, but we've been on the end of a few decisions this season so it's nice to get a bit of luck and then the third goal really killed it off in the end.

“I thought it was a dominant display from us."
