You May Have Missed Middlesbrough's Truly Remarkable Kick-Off Against Leeds United

So, about Middlesbrough's kick-off against Leeds United last night.

Boro entertained their Championship counterparts on Friday, and secured all-three points following a 3-0 victory courtesy of a Patrick Bamford hat-trick.

Following the league win, Tony Pulis' side enter the Play-Off's.

And while the hosts pretty much dominated the game, one particular play got everybody talking - The kick-off.

The player standing over the ball immediately gave the possession to the visitors, before the defence played out of the back.
