Leeds United boss Simon Grayson paid tribute to Exeter City after they inflicted only Leeds United's second defeat of the season in League One.

The Whites had gone 17 games unbeaten before they travelled to the Park but a superb home side dominated possession and deserved their 2-0 victory.

And after the match Grayson said, in a video available on Grecian Player, : "I have to give a lot of credit to Exeter.

"I thought they played well today. They worked our back four as hard as probably a lot of teams have so far this season.

"Then their lad has hit a great second strike which has killed the game off really.

"There was a full capacity crowd looking for an upset and that is what happened.

"You can't start games in the way we started it because it is difficult to pick it up again and that gave them impetus and a foothold in the game to which we could respond."
