Adrian Durham stunned after Leeds United v Blackburn – ‘Incredible’
Adrian Durham was left stunned by Blackburn Rovers’ late comeback against Leeds United on 1 January.
The Whites dominated the game at Elland Road and looked set to win it when Pascal Struijk scored a late penalty but Danny Batth then bagged an equaliser for the visitors.
However, come the full-time whistle, there was nothing to separate the two teams and the match ended 1-1.
Durham said on talkSPORT on 1 January at 16:54: “Incredible scenes here at Elland Road. Blackburn have just on gone to equalise.”
Daniel Farke needs to make a few tactical tweaks at Leeds United
The Elland Road faithful have every right to be frustrated following their 1-1 draw against Blackburn.
Despite dominating the match and appearing set to secure a victory after Struijk’s late penalty, the team’s inability to hold onto the lead or even take a bigger lead was a significant letdown.
The equaliser by Batth in the dying moments of the game underscored a persistent issue under Farke.
Leeds have been known for their control in matches in recent games, being defensively solid and offensively threatening, yet the draw against a Blackburn side that was more defensive than dynamic highlights tactical shortcomings.
Farke is an experienced Championship manager and has experienced multiple promotions but these are games his side should be winning.
At the end of the season, it will be these results that may end up being the determining factor and hopefully, the Whites do not suffer the same fate as last season.
