Supporters would have been significantly more irritated if Leeds hadn't held out for the victory.
Leeds got back to winning ways on Sunday afternoon as they claimed a 2-1 win over Middlesbrough at Elland Road.
Goals from Pablo Hernandez and Ezgjan Alioski gave Thomas Christiansen's side all three points but there was some nail-biting in the dying moments after a lifeline had been handed to the visitors.
Boro were awarded a penalty with less than 15 minutes remaining following a grappling match in the box between Daniel Ayala and Luke Ayling.

The Leeds full back was tasked with marking Ayala, who got up close and personal with Ayling when a corner kick was swung in.
Ayala grabbed Ayling's face and flung him to the turf but, when a whistle didn't sound, the hosts' right back reached out in frustration and grabbed his opponent's ankle.
Ayala hit the deck, the linesman only saw the second foul and a penalty was duly converted by Britt Assombalonga.
And while the victory will be welcomed with open arms, Leeds supporters could not get over the decision which brought about a needlessly nervy ending to the game.
