Patrick Bamford scored controversially during Leeds' win over Rotherham, leaving the visiting boss fuming at a 'blatant handball' missed by officials. <br /><br />Bamford found the back of the net inside the opening 10 minutes of Leeds' 3-0 victory on Saturday before Crysencio Summerville scored a brace later in the game. <br /><br />However, there was much debate around Bamford's strike after he appeared to use his elbow to help guide the ball into the Rotherham net. <br /><br />In the 10th minute of the game, full-back Junior Firpo whipped in a cross that Bamford helped direct into the net. <br /><br />However, replays that later appeared on X, formerly known as Twitter, appeared to show the striker sticking out his elbow to push the ball into the goal. <br /><br />Bamford, however, made sure there was no confusion as to what had happened as he wheeled away and used his elbow in celebration. <br /><br />The forward jumped in the air to rejoice at his goal, sticking his elbow out in a similar fashion to moments before, as he did so. <br /><br />Leeds' official account on X, formerly known as Twitter, appeared to make light of the situation as they posted the goal with the caption: 'They all count!'. <br /><br />However, Rotherham boss Leam Richardson was left fuming with the incident and insisted that officials missed a 'clear' handball. <br /><br />He said: 'It's a blatant handball. It's a tough place to come to anyway and if you get decisions like that going against you then you're up against it.<br /><br />'It should have been an easy decision for the referee to disallow it.<br /><br />'I thought we started the match terrifically well. We took the game to them. But then a big decision went against us and it was an uphill challenge from there.<br /><br />'Patrick's [Bamford] admitted after the event that the ball has hit his arm. You expect those decisions to go with you when it's as clear as that.'<br /><br />In the game, Bamford broke free and ran at Begovic, only for the Bosnian to lunge into a tackle and get himself sent off - but despite the striker dramatically hitting the deck, there was no contact. <br /><br />As such, QPR commentators were incensed at the England striker's actions and wasted no time in making their real feelings known, shouting: 'There's no touch he's a diving cheat!'<br /><br />Seconds later as Bamford stood over the ball to take the free-kick in the 93rd minute which he had seemingly bought, the commentators continued their barrage: 'Bamford the cheat will take the free-kick, left-footed from outside the box'.
