Leeds United boss Daniel Farke spoke to BBC Radio Leeds after their 2-0 victory against Millwall returned them to the top of the Championship.

"It was an excellent win for us tonight in a pretty busy period. Also, it was an excellent performance," he said.

"We were quite respectful today because we haven't lost many games, but it is so important for us that when there is a little set-back that we answer straight away.

"That is what we have always done during the season so far. I love it.

"But also the game after a loss can also be difficult because you can have a great run of form, with many wins or 17 games unbeaten, but then you lose one game and that does something with the confidence and the rhythm, and you have to fight your way back to get momentum back on your side.

"That is what we did today against an excellent Millwall side that always shows resilience, that is competitive, and tries to press and go for it."
