'A good point on the road'
Speaking after his side fought back from 2-0 down to draw at QPR, Leeds United boss Daniel Farke said:
"During this period of the season when you have to play the third game in six days and you are 2-0 down after 30 minutes, it's a good point.
"QPR deserved to be in the lead because we were poor in the first 25-30 minutes.
"What was good was the reaction of my team today. Last season we were 2-0 down after 20 minutes [QPR won the game 4-0] but today we fought back.
"Second half we were completely on it, pressed the game, had four or five good situations where we were so, so close in the six-yard box.
"Yes, of course, we wanted to win this game [but] after the story of the game it's a good point on the road."
On Willy Gnonto's performance off the bench: "I was convinced he would make an impact.
"If I had opted for Ilia Gruev [to start the match] I would also have opted for Willy Gnonto. Perhaps we would have had a better start if we had made those changes.
"The feeling is he's playing more and more to create good situations in the centre and that's what he did in the second half."
