Arsenal central defender Rob Holding has praised the Leeds United fans on Instagram for making it “tough” for the Gunners at Elland Road.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal got the better of Leeds 1-0 away from home at Elland Road in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
Bukayo Saka scored the only goal of the match in the first half.
While Arsenal were very good in the first half, Leeds stepped up their game in the second period and could have at least picked up a point had star striker Patrick Bamford not failed to convert a penalty.
The Leeds fans were in full voice throughout the game, and Arsenal defender Holding was impressed, as you can see from his Instagram post below.

That shows how far Mikel Arteta’s side have come.
The North London club remain at the top of the Premier League table, and many will consider them as challengers for the title this season.
As for Leeds, they remain in danger of facing a relegation fight as the season progresses.
