Championship winners Leeds United were given a guard of honour by Wayne Rooney and Derby County.

Leeds received a guard of honour at Pride Park Stadium on Sunday after being crowned Championship winners following West Brom and Brentford losing over the weekend.

Manchester United legend Rooney led the guard of honour as his teammates applauded the 2019/20 Championship winners onto the pitch ahead of the fixture.

Naturally, Leeds' guard of honour from Derby sent social media into overdrive.

One Twitter user wrote: "Derby and Wayne Rooney giving Leeds the guard of honour, does it get better than this?"

A second tweeted: "Inject this into my veins."

A third wrote: "Did I just see Wayne Rooney giving Leeds a guard of honour."

Leeds were promoted on Friday night after Huddersfield beat West Brom and Marcelo Bielsa's side were then confirmed as champions when Brentford slipped up at Stoke City on Saturday.

Leeds' 16-year Premier League absence is finally over as they'll compete with England's biggest teams in the top flight next season.
