Daniel Farke was left "raging" with Sheffield Wednesday man Djeidi Gassama after his dive in their Championship clash against Leeds United on Sunday, Aidy White shared.

The winger was running down the right-hand side of the pitch when he was met by Jayden Bogle who put in a more than fair tackle on the attacker.

Despite it being a fair challenge, the 21-year-old seemed to dramatise it, which Aidy White said left Farke angered due to the way he fell to the floor.

The game ended 3-0 in the Whites' favour with Leeds adding yet another three points to their tally.

"Farke is raging with Gassama here, his hands are all out and now the force are having to come over just to calm him down but he's really unhappy with Gassama and trying to win that free-kick, he feels like he's gone for the dive," he said live on BBC Radio Leeds (19 January, 12:39pm).

Leeds United made a good name for themselves against Sheffield Wednesday

Although the Whites were expected to leave Elland Road with all three points on 19 January, it was a particularly please start to how they started the game with Manor Solomon scoring after two minutes.

From that point onwards, Farke's men were the dominant side even though the Owls put up a decent fight.

Leeds' victory against Wednesday cemented their place at the top of the second-tier table and no doubt helped their case for Premier League promotion.

At the moment, Leeds seem to be one of the favourites to go up and even though no new faces have been brought to Elland Road in the winter transfer window, it feels like Farke has more than enough talent and depth at his disposal to keep fighting until the end.

Only time will tell what the future holds for the West Yorkshire outfit but if they keep playing as well as they did against Rohl's men, it feels like they should be more than fine.
