Leeds fans often see Jansson animated on the pitch – but rarely this deliriously happy, as he is more intent on intimidating the opposition.

Jansson is a fan favourite at Leeds United after signing from Torino on a permanent deal earlier this year.

Pontus Jansson of Sweden celebrates after the victory during the FIFA 2018 World Cup Qualifier between Sweden and Belarus at Friends arena on March 25, 2017 in Solna, .
