Meslier 'heartbroken' after howler costs Leeds victory

Leeds United head coach Daniel Farke said Illan Meslier was "in tears" after the goalkeeper's glaring mistake cost his side victory at Sunderland.

In the 97th minute of Friday's match, with the minimum six minutes of added time already up, the Frenchman allowed Alan Browne's hopeful ball into the box to squirm past him and gift the Black Cats a 2-2 draw.

A win would have taken Leeds level on points with leaders Sunderland at the top of the Championship, but instead they remain three points behind in third.

"After such a situation, you don't need to talk to Illan, he is the saddest person in the dressing room, he's more or less in tears," said Farke.
