Jesse Marsch insists Leeds didn't deserve Leicester defeat on his Premier League debut

New Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch has claimed his team deserved at least a point from their Premier League game at Leicester City after beginning his reign with a narrow defeat, but said the display mattered more than the result.

Home goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel put in a man-of-the-match performance to keep Marsch's team at bay, with Harvey Barnes scoring the only goal of the game in the second half.

The new boss was pleased with his team's display - in particular what he considered a period of control at the start of the second half - but Leeds remain in relegation trouble after a fifth straight league defeat.
