Daniel Farke kicked off his post-match press conference with a light-hearted apology to the media for his Leeds United players' noisy celebrations, as shared by Leeds Live.

In a dramatic game away at Swansea, Leeds scored in the 91st minute, after conceding a minute earlier, to win the game 4-3 and take the spot at the top of the Championship table.

Naturally, the players were thrilled after such a result but the proximity of the away dressing room to the media suite at Swansea meant all those waiting for Farke's comments could hear the blaring music too.

After realising his side had left the waiting media with a soundtrack, the Whites' boss made a light-hearted apology before getting underway with his press conference.

As reported by Beren Cross: "The German could only apologise to the assembled media and express his relief he was with us rather than sampling his team’s tunes."

Leeds United go top of Championship

After an exciting 4-3 win, nobody could blame the Leeds players for being full of positivity and taking to the dressing room to celebrate.

Although the Leeds boss perhaps felt a bit sheepish realising that his team's dressing room was audible, his ability to laugh it off with the press showed how relaxed he was after the result too.

It's a long season ahead and it is tight at the top of the Championship but there is seemingly something good being built at Elland Road which could easily bring success back to Elland Road.

Leeds United are planning on redeveloping Elland Road.

Having a good atmosphere at the club will make plenty of difference as the campaign goes on, especially in the moments the team might have to dig deep for one another to get a result.

Furthermore, Farke will no doubt be glad to have questions being asked more of his teams celebrations than usual in comparison to having to explain how his side conceded three goals in the game.
