Daniel Farke was furious with what Stephy Mavididi did on February 23, the day Leeds United defeated Leicester City 3-1. At Elland Road, the Whites overcame a goal deficit to win the game with three goals in the second half.
Mavididi took as long as he could to be substituted off with the score at 1-0, but in the end, it went against his team.
“Of the many moments which triggered Farke on a highly emotive evening, the visitors’ time-wasting seemed to animate the Leeds boss most,” wrote Beren Cross on LeedsLive on February 24. While his team pursued an equaliser, Farke was yelling for action into the fourth official’s ear as Stephy Mavididi dragged himself off the pitch to be replaced.
