Some Leeds United fans on Twitter have been responding to Luciano Becchio’s post-match tweet following Saturday’s mental win over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

Leeds only had 29 percent possession, two shots on goal and 10 men, following Liam Cooper’s red card on the stroke of half time.

But Marcelo Bielsa has been working miracles with the Whites for close to three years and yesterday was another one, as the Elland Road club somehow recorded a 2-1 victory.

Becchio tweeted his outrage over Cooper’s dismissal just before the break, with the Leeds centre-back sent off for a challenge on Gabriel Jesus that was upgraded to a red after a VAR check.

The Argentine hitman is something of a club legend in West Yorkshire and suffice to say that fans of the Elland Road club were loving him pinning his colours to the post on social media straight after the victory.

Here’s what some fans were saying:
