Jesse Marsch praised for what he did during Leeds United's win at Wolves by former referee

Jesse Marsch did a 'fantastic' job at helping the situation between the two dugouts in Leeds United's dramatic 3-2 comeback win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. That's according to former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher, who believes that the American did Kevin Friend a favour by defusing the players and staff following a nasty-looking challenge on Adam Forshaw.

The two benches seemed adamant about something when Forshaw was fouled on the halfway line - with Wolves boss Bruno Lage and Kalvin Phillips amongst those involved in the confrontation. However, Marsch seemed to intervene and calm everyone down when it was about to boil up.

On the pitch, Leeds managed to overcome Lage's men in a thrilling five-goal thriller at Molineux. Jonny Otto and Francisco Trincao gave Wolves a two-nil advantage, before the Whites staged a dramatic second-half fightback.
