'Still being cheated in Europe' - Leeds United fans react to Kalvin Phillips's Cagliari red card

Leeds United fans have been reacting to Kalvin Phillips's red card in their pre-season encounter against Cagliari.

The Whites were held to a 1-1 draw by the Italian side in their final pre-season game before they take on Bristol City in their Championship opener next Sunday.

After falling behind to Valter Birsa's strike after just 14 minutes, Marcelo Bielsa's side responded five minutes into the second period when Pablo Hernandez scored from the penalty spot after Mateusz Klich was pushed in the back while attacking a Leif Davis cross.

The game's main talking point arrived six minutes from time, when Phillips was shown a straight red card after taking the ball and the man in a 50-50 challenge.

Luckily for Leeds, it appears Phillips won't be suspended for his side's opener next weekend, but that didn't stop Whites fans reacting to the decision on Twitter.
