The Leeds United right-back has won Goal of the Season for Quest TV.
Leeds United’s Luke Ayling has won Goal of the Season So Far on Quest TV.
The Whites beat Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town 2-0 at Elland Road on March 7.
But the game might be remembered for a moment of magic from the Leeds defender, whose stunning volley from the edge of the box on three minutes gave Marcelo Bielsa’s side an ideal start.
The former Arsenal product had been in a rich vein of goalscoring form prior to that, but that one will live long in his memory.
On Quest TV’s Twitter page, they announced that some 28,000 people had voted for that goal, giving Ayling a massive 75 percent majority.
Here’s how Leeds fans – who evidently voted in their thousands after jovial appeals from the player himself – reacted on Twitter.
This is a nice bit of positive news at an otherwise grim time for Leeds and most of Europe in general.
United were top of the Championship when their season was suspended due to the global health crisis – and they had a seven-point cushion in the automatic promotion places.
There’s every chance that Leeds would’ve officially booked their Premier League return by now if not for the halted season.
