Leeds United: Fans love footage of Luke Ayling with his daughter

Loads of Leeds United fans have been loving footage that has emerged on social media of defender Luke Ayling and his young daughter.
The defender posted a clip on his official Instagram account which has since been relayed by @barney_21 on Twitter, which shows him teaching his child what has become known as the ‘Ayling flop’ by some fans, a move he often uses to win his team free-kicks (via @FocusOnLeeds).
In the video, Ayling slightly touches his daughter on the back before she falls over a football and onto the floor. It is a move that her dad has certainly used a lot this season, indeed he wins an average of 2 fouls per game according to SofaScore.
It would be fair to say that the footage has gone down very well with a large number of Whites fans, many of whom have been reacting to it on Twitter. One even described her as ‘Neymar in the making’ – perhaps alluding to the Brazilian’s reputation for diving (talkSPORT). Here is what some had to say…
Absolutely brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣🤣
