Steven Schumacher: Plymouth Argyle boss focused on cutting out his side's errors

Joel Piroe scored Leeds United's second goal in their 2-1 win over Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle boss Steven Schumacher says he will use the international break to try to focus on cutting out the errors his side are making.

Argyle were beaten 2-1 at Leeds United on Saturday, with both goals coming from individual mistakes.

Kaine Kesler-Hayden gave the ball to Dan James for Leeds' opener and Julio Pleguezuelo's error set up the second.

"If you do make mistakes at this level every team has got top players who can punish you," Schumacher said.

"We need to concentrate more, we need to get better at the technical side of things, sometimes it's a poor pass or a poor touch that's costing us.

"So cut out the errors and then I think we'll be able to change these tight games around."

Schumacher felt his side should have had a penalty in the first half when Bali Mumba went down in the box after colliding with Ethan Ampadu.

"Another big call has gone against us at a big ground, and that seems to happen every week," Schumacher told BBC Radio Devon.

"Bali gets into the box and you could hear the contact, the two lads' boots collided, I heard the contact, there was no contact on the ball from their player, so I can't understand how it's a not a foul.

"I'm trying to ask the referee and the fourth official at the time 'why isn't that a foul' and the answer we got was 'it was just a coming together'.

"Now if it's a coming together in the box when our player's in control with it and the Leeds player doesn't make contact, that's a foul, it's a penalty.

"If we go in at 2-1 at half-time it gives us belief and confidence in that second half."
