Leeds United fans couldn’t have asked for a much better save from debutant Kiko Casilla when the Spaniard showed sensational reflexes to deny a Will Vaulks shot on goal from distance.
Playing away from home, Leeds won the game 2-1 against Rotherham United with Mateusz Klich scoring twice to secure all three points for the Whites.
As expected, the save garnered huge attention on social media and the moment was beautifully caught on cam from the stands by a Leeds United supporter.
Casilla dove to his right to deflect a sudden Rotherham attempt. The shot was powerful & from more than 18 yards out and Casilla timed it superbly to deflect it for a corner.

Leeds fans are more than happy with their new signing. Check out some of their reactions:
Manager Marcelo Bielsa will be hoping that Leeds can keep going from strength to strength with Casilla guarding the posts. Leeds next play Norwich City at Elland Road on 2nd February.
