The goal from Souleymane Doukara came when Leeds United took on Nottingham Forrest back in 2017, which fans enjoyed reliving once again.
Doukara played 82 games in the Championship also managing to find the net 14 times in those appearances. The 28-year-old is now playing in Saudi Arabia for Al-Ettifaq, however, he is yet to score in the league so far this season.
These Leeds United fans clearly still remember when he was scoring and enjoyed reminiscing over this wonder goal once again.

One fan even said that it had a touch of Tony Yeboah, who managed to score a number of incredible goals for Leeds, with his most famous arguably being his long-range volley against Liverpool.
A touch of Mr Yeboah about it.

It’s clear to see that ‘Douks’ is still looked upon fondly by the Leeds fans, which is nice to see considering it’s been a while since they’ve seen him.
To this day, I cannot believe this goal, eight behind it as well, absolute screamer

What Do We Think?
Doukara will never be compared to Lionel Messi but it’s an amazing goal and in an important game, sometimes it’s a good thing to have ‘that player’ who doesn’t score often but scores when you need him. The 28-year-old would have a tough time kicking Patrick Bamford out of Marcelo Bielsa’s starting XI, but it’s still nice the fans can enjoy his wonder goal.
