Leeds United fans were left praising Ezgjan Alioski after the left-back scored the second goal in the 2-0 win over Hull City.
The North Macedonia international put the gloss on the victory when he slotted home a rebound after Patrick Bamford had hit the post when the Whites counter-attacked their opponents.
