Leeds United boss Uwe Rosler has hit out at the decision-making of referee Neil Swarbrick in his side's 3-0 defeat to Middlesbrough.

Strikes from David Nugent and Diego Fabbrini along with an own goal from Giuseppe Bellusci handed the North-East outfit the three points at the Riverside Stadium.

However, Rosler has bemoaned decisions made by Swarbrick when he disallowed Mirco Antenucci's 56th-minute goal and failed to send off Christian Stuani as costly moments in the game for his side.

The German told Sky Sports News: "The referee had a poor day. He got two major decisions wrong. Stuani should not have been on the field and obviously the goal too.

"He [the linesman] told me he had to ask the referee so he wasn't sure. How can you give offside when you're not sure? He has to be 100% sure.

"It was the turning point in the game. You can't even be sure watching on TV."

Leeds are 14th in the Championship following their defeat at the Riverside.
