Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa was stunned by one moment from Anthony Martial in their 6-2 defeat at Manchester United.

Bielsa hit out at criticism of Leeds' approach to the United game with more than 40 minutes worth of analysis of the fixture.

As part of that, he broke down Martial's role in United's second goal and claimed the forward "was the most influential of their four attackers".

He said: "The throw-ins are another form of creating danger, there was one sole action from them and none from us which created in this resource. Resulted in the second goal of McTominay.

"The pass Martial gives McTominay is almost impossible. Reading of this move we produced was near perfect. Having said this, Martial was the most influential of their four attackers."
