Leeds fan writer Lewis Deighton on how they are lighting up the Championship

"Who better to play next then than seemingly our title contenders in Sheffield United?"

I wrote that last week after our late comeback against Sunderland, and who better indeed. Make that consecutive wins against promotion rivals in dramatic fashion.

I touched last week on the similarities between our comeback against Sunderland and the one against Leicester a year prior – not expecting an even closer parallel just seven days later.

Leicester went ahead in the 15th minute. Blades went ahead in the 14th. We won both games 3-1 having trailed in the 70th minute. We scored two goals inside three minutes after the 79th minute in both. We scored after the 88th minute in both. Coming a year and a day apart, it's almost freaky how alike they are.

Rather like Sunderland, Chris Wilder's side nullified us for a large portion of the game – but through sheer blind hope I was convinced that an equaliser would come out of nowhere and turn the tide.

At 1-1 I'd like to say that I saw us winning it but honestly I just wanted the full-time whistle. Did anyone foresee Ao Tanaka popping up for a header in the 89th minute? I love that man. There were about three seconds where you could hear a pin drop and then so much noise that I could barely hear myself.

People were still picking themselves up off the floor as Joel Piroe struck for the third. A mere minute between the goals and absolute carnage ensued. An elderly gentleman who'd been stood behind me was somehow several rows in front of me once everything calmed down – enough said.

Any suggestion that we are boring to watch is in the past. Too early to say that we're winning the Championship – but we are certainly lighting it up.
