Leeds United boss Daniel Farke, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It's a good point on the road. It's a tough place to come so it's a good point because Brighton are a good team. But we had a chances to win it. Normally if you miss so many chances in an away game, you come away with no points so I'm happy to have a point in our hands.

"It's a very good start for us - two difficult away games. It can always be better but overall it's a good start and we are happy with it."

On Dominic Calvert-Lewin's performance: "Dominic was a big leader for us. He normally puts his chances to bed, but he's a fantastic leader, fantastic player and we are happy to have him."
