Bamford admits he threw up on the pitch during Leeds’ draw with Liverpool

Patrick Bamford has revealed he threw up on the pitch during Leeds ’ clash with Liverpool.

Bamford says he vomited in the second half because he was running so much before Leeds scored their late equaliser in the 1-1 draw at Elland Road.

“I was actually sick in my mouth on the pitch when I was blowing,” said the Leeds striker.

“I think it was just after I hit the bar and they broke on a counter-attack. I sprinted from their box to ours, nothing came of it, Illan Meslier got the ball and we started attacking again.

“I ran all way way back up the pitch and we just kept the ball and were passing it around. I thought I was going to burb, and I was sick in my mouth.

“I spat it out and for the rest of the game, I had the taste of sick in my mouth.”

Bamford claims he did not come over to the touchline for a drink to wash his mouth out because Marcelo Bielsa was shouting at him to run again.

“I was trying to stay away because after I did that run, I heard him shout ‘Patrick, move’ and I thought ‘Oh, my God!’”.

Bamford felt Leeds should have added Liverpool to their collection of big scalps and was disappointed only to draw.

“I remember me and Kalvin on the walk in the morning, we were talking and I said if we can get after them, we can win this,” he said on the Official Leeds United Podcast.

“I was really frustrated after the game that we had not won and in the second half we really had them up against the wall. It was frustrating.”
