One of the fans taking part was six-year-old Zach whose Dad shared the photo of his beaming grin ahead of Saturday's match. And the little Ezgjan Alioski superfan was still grinning from ear-to-ear on Saturday night after Leeds United beat Millwall 3-2.

Sheffield United lost 3-2 to Bristol City putting the Whites back in second place in the Championship.

Fans were overjoyed with the result and shared their joy (and stress) on social media.
