A lot of Leeds United fans have flocked to a post from their club that contains footage from the Whites’ 3-2 win over Aston Villa in the 2018/19 season.

Nice easy one to start off with, what number does Phillips wear for Leeds United?

The footage shows Leeds breaking away through Mateusz Klich, who finds the run of Ezgjan Alioski, and he then clips a ball into the box that is headed away poorly, only as far as Kemar Roofe, who launches his strike into the bottom corner to spark wild scenes in the away end.

Leeds came from 2-0 down to win this game at Villa Park, and this footage has clearly delighted many Whites fans.

What did these Leeds fans think of this footage?

Was sat in the holte end with two of my mates who support villa and I had to restrain myself from going mental during this amazing comeback! Safe to say they weren’t happy listening to me as we left the ground together”

Oh what a night! One of our most exciting wins under Marcelo’s tutorship. We replicated his “never say die” philosophy. Jack & Lief came of age & Pontus showed how much he cared. Happy days.”

However, other Leeds fans used this post to remember Roofe, and many stated that they missed him.

Resign him”

Roofey”

“Wow I miss that man”

The 27-year-old had a stellar season for Leeds that year as he bagged 15 goals in all competitions before the Whites sold him to Anderlecht.

Roofe is now with Rangers, and he has had an impressive start to life in Scotland with 11 goals in all competitions for Steven Gerrard’s men this season, so it is no wonder that these Leeds fans miss him.

This is some great footage from Leeds and Roofe’s finish isn’t too bad either, so we are not surprised that these Leeds fans are happy with this tweet from their club.
