LEEDS UNITED star Luke Ayling has revealed he tried to emulate Robbie Keane's famous celebration after netting a late winner at Wolves.
The former Tottenham and Ireland striker's trademark was to cartwheel, do a forward roll and shoot his finger pistols towards the crowd.
But Ayling failed at the first step, with his chaotic cartwheel almost leading to injury.
The pandemonium of the celebration fit the scenes in the away stand and was exemplary of the match as a whole - which featured a red card and eight minutes stoppage time in both halves.
After scoring a rare goal, a delighted Ayling tried to explain his celebration.
He told Sky Sports: "I tried to do the Robbie Keane but I couldn't land the cartwheel which is a bit disappointing - I'll have to work on that."
Ayling, who was wearing the captain's armband in place of the missing Kalvin Phillips, almost grabbed Leeds' first goal.
The right-back ran in behind Wolves' backline, brought the ball down brilliantly and smashed the post with a low shot.
He followed the ball up and his rebound effort was cleared off the line by Conor Coady before Jack Harrison eventually smashed in.
But he later got his goal and proved to be the hero as Leeds went seven points clear of the relegation zone.
Leeds will need goals from all areas of their squad if they are to stay up after Patrick Bamford picked up yet another injury.
The striker had just returned from a lengthy injury lay off and was in tears after he was forced off after 20 minutes.
