Leeds boss Bielsa happy with Brighton point after halftime change

Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa was happy with an improved second-half for their 0-0 draw at Brighton.

Bielsa gave his thoughts on the match, explaining how the two halves differed.

“In the first half, the differences were clear," said Bielsa.

“In the second half, the game was even, with opportunities for both teams and we improved in everything.

“In the first half there was a lack of organisation and a lot of things for us to correct, but in no way do I think it is linked to the players who came on or came off.

“It was just down to the fact in the first half we weren't a team co-ordinated and in the second half, the function collectively improved.

“They created too many chances in the first half and there were too few from us.

“The differences in the first half worry us and the recovery in the second half gives us optimism and hope.

“In the second half we managed to look a lot more like our usual selves, without managing to shine or unbalance them."
