Ten seconds was all it took for Tottenham to find the net at Elland Road once Harry Winks had picked up possession midway inside his own half.
Pushing forward with the ball to the halfway line, the Spurs academy graduate saw a gaping hole in Leeds' backline and released Ryan Sessegnon down the left flank with a perfectly-weighted pass.
The left wing-back in turn put the ball on a plate with a first-time pass across the face of goal for Matt Doherty to expertly fire home and give the Lilywhites the lead ten minutes in.
Doherty was in fact Spurs' most advanced player at the time, with the attacking trio of Son Heung-min, Dejan Kulusevski and Harry Kane some way behind him.
The goal was the Republic of Ireland international's first for the club, with his strike also creating another first for Tottenham with the wing-backs combining together to make their mark in the final third.
"For the first time I have seen my mark about this system, to create with the wing-back and the other wing back to score," said Antonio Conte in his post-match press conference at Elland Road.
"This is a mark of my system, my formation. This is the first time. It means the work is starting to work."
Enjoying great success with his wing-backs at Chelsea and Inter Milan in his previous two jobs, the 52-year-old has not had much luck in that area of the pitch since arriving at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Tending to opt for Emerson Royal and Sergio Reguilon as his preferred duo during his Tottenham tenure, the former has one assist under the Italian and the latter has one goal and one assist to his name.
Doherty now has one goal and two assists during Conte's spell having boosted his tally with a goal and assist at Elland Road, with Reguilon having one of each so far.
In comparison, Victor Moses had four goals and four assists in his first season playing for Conte at Chelsea and Marcos Alonso had six goals and three assists to his name.
While of course it needs to be pointed out that Reguilon and Emerson are not natural wing-backs and need time to adapt to the position, the difference between the numbers at Chelsea and Tottenham only highlight the struggles the boss has faced in that area of the pitch since November as he expects so much from the wide areas.
Conte's idea is for his wing-back not on the ball to be joining the likes of Kane and Co in the box when the other wing-back is in possession.
That was evident in the tenth minute at Leeds with Doherty in a brilliant position in the box to get on the end of Sessegnon's inviting cross.
Speaking to Spurs TV after the game, Doherty opened up on the goal and the quality of the ball in by his teammate.
"The ball was going to be right because Sess was on the end of it and he's got quality," he admitted.
"Once it was there I knew he was going to put it in the right spot and it was up to me to get the right connection. Fortunately this time around I did and it went in.
"It's my first goal for Tottenham, it's taken a long time but it feels pretty good still."
Of course the quality of opposition needs to be taken into consideration given Leeds' recent struggles but Doherty and Sessegnon demonstrated why exactly they were brought to the club with eye-catching displays in West Yorkshire.
However, it's now about making sure that it was not a one-off performance and ensuring that the same levels are delivered week in, week out.
Clearly working hard on the training pitch and trying to perfect Conte's philosophy regarding his wing-backs, Saturday's win at Leeds was the first example that their hard work is starting to pay off.
Always going to struggle to come close to number Moses and Alonso achieved at Chelsea in 2016/17 under Conte given he only arrived in N17 in November, the boss will be hoping the numbers keep on increasing between now and May as he looks for a lot more joy from out wide to benefit Tottenham.
