Salim Lamrani has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Leeds United’s win against Barnsley on Thursday evening.
Leeds have got the better of Barnsley 1-0 at Elland Road in the Championship.
An own goal from Michael Sollbauer in the 28th minute proved to be the difference between the two Yorkshire rivals.
The result means that Leeds need just a point from their final two Championship games to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League.
Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa’s former translator Lamrani was following the match, and he has delighted with the result for the club and has revelled in the win.
We can see the Promised Land!!!
