Leeds United winger Ezgjan Alioski did not have a great game on Saturday afternoon.

Although the West Yorkshire outfit won their Championship encounter against Bristol City 2-0 at Elland Road, the performance of Alioski left much to be desired.

The 26-year-old Macedonia international winger gave the ball away far too many times and far too cheaply, received a yellow card, struggled to create anything of note and was substituted in the 61st minute.

Alioski, though, does not lack in energy and commitment, and the winger did not shy away from getting stuck in.

During the match, the Leeds winger was caught on camera squaring up to City defender Jack Hunt.

The 27-year-old former Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday star is a strong and no-nonsense defender, but as the following photos show, Alioski – who joined the Leeds from Lugano in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by The Yorkshire Evening Post to be worth £2 million – did not get scared.
