Daniel Farke blamed Leeds United's failure to do the basics right in the first 20 minutes in a humbling 4-0 defeat at QPR but he isn't giving up on the automatic play-off race yet.
Farke watched his Leeds side put in their worst performance of the season at the worst possible time. Sloppy play on and off the ball cost them dearly as QPR raced to a 2-0 lead before the midway point of the first half. Nothing Farke did to try and change the course of the game worked and two goals in the final 17 minutes confirmed the chastening defeat. A half empty away end demanded answers from Farke and the players as they approached at full-time.
He plans to analyse the game with the squad on Saturday at Thorp Arch but by the start of next week believes Leeds must move on to focus on their final outing against Southampton. Though Ipswich could have clinched second place by the time Leeds play again, Farke is not prepared to start speaking about the play-offs. 'I would have loved to take the pressure away with already being promoted,' he said. 'Right now it's not in our hands, we have to be honest. The race is not over.
