Rodrigo has paid tribute to his Leeds United teammates on Instagram after starring in last night’s stunning comeback win against Wolves.

Leeds trailed 2-0 at Molineux, but a red card to Raul Jimenez changed the course of the game and Jesse Marsch’s side scored three unanswered goals to win 3-2.

Amongst the goals again was Rodrigo, who hauled Leeds level with a powerful finish from an angle, shortly after Jack Harrison had fired Marsch’s men back into the game.

Luke Ayling wrapped up the points in stoppage time, sparking special scenes at Molineux.

Taking to Instagram after the game, Rodrigo shared a picture of himself and his Leeds teammates in the dressing room, alongside a touching tribute to those involved:

Victory for Leeds still leaves them in 16th, but they’ve now moved onto 29 points and are seven clear of the relegation zone heading into the March international break.

Due to the FA Cup quarter finals this weekend, there is no fixture for any of the four teams below Leeds in the table.

Rodrigo’s influence is growing everyday under Marsch, who has made an effort to bring the Spanish international to the forefront of his plans.

Last night, he was a driving force in the second-half and played a crucial role in bringing Leeds back into the game.

He’s clearly loving his time at the club, too, with his celebrations at 2-2 really quite something.

And, he’s taking to his new leadership role very well, bringing the players together on and off the pitch regularly.

Fair play to him.
