A lot of Leeds United fans were left in awe at a goal that their Under-23 side scored in a 1-1 draw with Barnsley.
Does this goal make you want to see more of Poveda?
Yes
No
The footage shows Ian Poveda receive the ball inside his own half and then turn past one Barnsley midfielder (0:04) before playing a succession of passes that ends with him at the byline. (0:12)
The 20-year-old then plays the ball across goal for Bobby Kamwa, who sticks the ball in the net. (0:15)
This footage has gone down brilliantly with these Leeds fans who are excited by the football that their Under-23s play.

Classic Bielsaball move with Poveda doing well to get to the byline. Great movement from Kamwa as well.

Other Whites supporters, though, have reserved special praise for Ian Poveda.
Another young 1 we have with magic in his boots?

What do we think?
This is a well-worked goal, but the undoubted star of the move is Poveda, who shows great skill, pace, and movement to create the chance for Kamwa.
In our opinion, the most impressive part of the goal is Poveda’s composure to pick out Kamwa when he is at the byline. (0:15)
The 20-year-old has not yet made a first-team appearance for Leeds since joining from Manchester City in January, but we think if he keeps producing moments like this, then he won’t have to wait long.
