FA investigating after objects thrown at Tottenham players during win at Leeds #lufc

Leeds are benefitting from Calvert-Lewin leading the line – but goals are needed The former Everton forward has been so effective in making Farke’s system work at Leeds, even if he should have more than one goal by now

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's the glue holding the Leeds United attack together. Strength, jumping, heading, movement and intelligence is giving entire team a springboard.

Five good chances in two games spurned. Goals will surely follow his creativity. #lufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/668...

DF: "I have to be careful and do not like to comment (on officials). Last time we had this referee it was a big talking point and got a letter. Leave it to other people to comment. I cannot influence this." #lufc

DF: "We have to take our chances and hope the goalkeeper is not the man of the match. Should have hit the target with a few of our chances. Played one of the country's top sides and were the better side. Encouraging. Proud of how far we have come." #lufc

DF: "Deflected strike out of a non-dangerous situation. Gabi slips for second. Punished with deflection again. Tough for my lads. They scored twice out of nothing. Rodon off the post. DCL big chance. Longstaff big chance. Pascal's headers." #lufc

Farke here.

DF: "Very unfortunate. First feeling is disappointment. Many compliments to the lads for their performance. After this game, I would normally be disappointed with a draw. Better side in all aspects. Missed too many chances." #lufc

Frank: "I know how difficult it is in the Championship (to go unbeaten). They concede very few chances or xG. What's hidden in the stats is five or six top chances where we flash the ball across their box. I would rather praise them. They were good. Defended well. Very brave on the ball." #lufc

Thomas Frank speaking.

"Extremely happy. Last 10 minutes, we dropped back. Until the 80th minute, I was very happy. Very solid defensively. Gave the goal away. Created two goals and other chances." #lufc

Leeds 1 Tottenham 2 – Spurs end international break curse? Nearly Beachball-gate 2 Beren Cross and Elias Burke break down the key talking points from Saturday afternoon's game

Tough one to swallow, but gave the league's second-placed team a proper game today. #lufc

Full time. Spurs win it. 'Cheat, cheat, cheat' is the chant from the home fans. Referee made a lot of poor calls and Struijk will feel unfortunate for the two goals, but still silver linings in there for Leeds. Beat them on every metric except the one that matters. #lufc

Great effort from Piroe at the death, as Farke would have wanted, from another Calvert-Lewin knock-down. Good save. #lufc

Leeds in a 4-1-2-3: Bogle, Rodon, Ampadu, Struijk; Tanaka; Piroe, Longstaff; Nmecha, Calvert-Lewin, Harrison. #lufc

Gudmundsson and Okafor off for Nmecha and Piroe. #lufc

Piroe and Nmecha summoned. #lufc

Longstaff not far away with a superb low drive. Tanaka injecting some life since coming on. Plenty of encouragement to believe there's still something in this for the hosts. #lufc

Aaronson and Stach off for Harrison and Tanaka. #lufc

Harrison too. #lufc

Tanaka coming on. #lufc

Okafor and Romeroi booked for going head-to-head after the former fouled Porro in midfield. Hard to see it as a foul. Officials poor today. #lufc

Far too easy, again, for Udogie to get to the Leeds byline. Great low pass, begging to be tapped in, but carries through. #lufc

Gudmundsson misjudges the bounce of the pass and Kudus steals inside to cut in. Carries across the box, shoots, Strujk blocks, but again deflects it past Darlow. Dutchman kicking himself afterwards. #lufc

Goal Tottenham. Kudus. #lufc

Ampadu, amusingly, just shifted Aaronson as the draught excluder after last weekend's incident. Kudus free kick on target, but straight down Darlow's throat. #lufc

Ampadu booked for a late one on Porro. #lufc

Two great chances for Leeds. Okafor carries inside from the left, feeds Calvert-Lewin, time, turns and shoots, but Vicario boots away. Stach picks up and eventually crosses across goal, needed a touch, but three Leeds bodies miss it. #lufc

Second half underway. No changes. #lufc

Half-time. 1-1. Even game, but Leeds edging it fractionally perhaps. #lufc

Good save from Darlow. Tel got up to get a looping header on goal. Pushed away at close range by Darlow. #lufc

Palhinha booked for sliding in on Aaronson. Had Meslier out of the dugout to protest. #lufc
