Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch faces an anxious wait to see if he will be absent from the touchline for next week’s game against Nottingham Forest at Elland Road. The Whites will be looking to end their run of three matches without a win after a disappointing 5-2 defeat at Brentford on Saturday.
The game in the capital was of particular frustration to Marsch, who was incensed by a number of decisions that went against Leeds. Firstly, he was aggrieved by the decision by VAR to award Brentford a penalty for Ivan Toney’s opener.
But it was Leeds’ denial of a second half penalty which angered Marsch the most, as Crysencio Summerville went down in the area under clear contact from the defender. Both the referee and VAR waved Leeds’ appeals away, with Marsch venting his disapproval at the linesman and fourth official which saw him shown a red card by Robert Jones.
