Leeds United fans blown away by Mateo Joseph after his stats emerge from Stoke win
Leeds United fans have urged Daniel Farke to hand Mateo Joseph more minutes after his substitute appearance against Stoke City on Tuesday (5 March).
The Whites returned to winning ways in the Championship with a narrow 1-0 win at Elland Road thanks to Daniel James’ 33rd-minute winner.
Leeds supporters were very impressed with 20-year-old Joseph, who entered the fray as Patrick Bamford’s replacement in the 71st minute.
The Englishman had made just 10 appearances in the league – all from the bench – before getting on the field against the struggling Potters.
