Greuther Fürth coach Stefan Leitl criticized his own players following Sunday's 1-6 defeat against RB Leipzig at home.

"You can definitely lose against Leipzig, but not 1-6 at home," said Leitl in a post-match interview, according to Kicker.

"That's why we have to draw the right conclusions for the next few weeks, so that we fight back much better with our resources.

"A few of the players should be aware that they're playing in the Bundesliga with Fürth. We worked very hard to achieve that."

Leitl didn't mention any names, but did reveal that he wasn't referring to the players, who were promoted with Fürth last season.
