The brilliant reactions of the Leeds United squad after 'crazy' Birmingham City win

Leeds United players have been reacting to their side's remarkable 5-4 win over Birmingham City on Saturday afternoon.

The Whites final game of the year produced a nine-goal thriller which fans will remember for a long time, particularly because the three points have now sent the club back to the top of the Championship table thanks to West Brom's loss to Middlesbrough.

Helder Costa gave Leeds the lead in the first half and Jack Harrison added a second before Birmingham pulled a goal back with Jude Bellingham.

Lukas Jutkiewicz levelled the contest in the second period for Birmingham but Luke Ayling soon restored Leeds' advantage in the 69th minute.

Jeremie Bela equalised to make it 3-3 but Stuart Dallas put Leeds back in front a minute later. Jutkiewicz again equalised for the hosts in the first minute of injury time before a Wes Harding own goal in the 95th minute handed the Whites a 5-4 win.

It has left the likes of star defender Liam Cooper and midfielder Kalvin Phillips taking to social media to revel in the glorious feeling after a sensational victory.

Cooper tweeted: "Some might say the @LUFC way! CHARACTER and SPIRIT was unbelievable.. ALAW."

Phillips also added: "Eventful game to say the least! Just keeping you all on edge as always! Support was 100%."

Luke Ayling called the match 'a little crazy', while Tyler Roberts saluted the club's 'great character'
