Leeds United have amazed fans and pundits in various ways this season and one particular thing has caught the attention of Jamie O'Hara.

Much like their win against Sunderland last week, Leeds executed a late comeback to earn a 3-1 victory over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Monday, 24 February.

While Illan Meslier's early own goal saw the Whites trail for most of the game, goals from Junior Firpo, Ao Tanaka and Joel Piroe saw them go home with all three points.

It was a similar story against Sunderland at Elland Road as Pascal Struijk scored in the 78th minute and five minutes into added time to hand his side a 2-1 win.

Leeds United late goals wow O'Hara

Looking back at Leeds' win against Sheffield United, O'Hara tipped his hat to Daniel Farke's side for dominating their opponents away from home in the second half.

Having also watched the Elland Road outfit multiple times this season, the pundit also admitted that he has been amazed by how many late goals they have scored.

Speaking live on talkSPORT (24 February, 10:37 pm), O'Hara said: "Fair play. Second half, you were all over them and you kept going.

"We have watched Leeds quite a lot this season because you've been on TV quite a lot because you're flying.

"The amount of goals you score, late goals, is unbelievable."
