Leeds United starlet Sam Byram fulfilled a dream last night by scoring in front of the club faithful and then celebrating with them.
At the Madjeski Stadium in a crunch Championship match, Leeds were winning 1-0 against Reading and under pressure as the home side pushed for an equaliser.
But the Whites broke away and Steve Morison delivered a pinpoint cross for Byram to nod the ball home.
The goal secured a 2-0 win and Byram leapt over to the nearly 3,000 travelling Leeds fans to celebrate, being booked for taking his shirt off in the process.
For Byram, the yellow card did not matter as a dream moment was lived.

He told LUTV: "There's nothing that beats it to be fair.
"I've always wanted to jump into a crowd following a goal and luckily it was in front of the fans.
"Big credit to Steve for putting it on a plate for me. I just had to nod it in."
The three points are vital for Leeds, who are continuing to battle to push away from the relegation zone in the Championship and Byram believes their performances show a corner has been turned.
"I think we've really picked up in these last four or five fixtures and we're a lot more together now", the starlet said.
"We're working hard and the most important thing is we're picking up results, which is vital at this point."
Next up for Leeds is a visit from Millwall at the weekend.
