New pictures of Burnley star Hannibal Maybri have emerged from Leeds United fans following their defeat at Elland Road.
Daniel Farke’s men lost 1-0 at home to their promotion rivals after Luca Koleosho’s 18th-minute goal proved decisive.
However, there was off-pitch footage that quickly did the rounds on social media after the match, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.
After being substituted in the 73rd minute, Hannibal walked around the pitch and showed off to the home fans.
Footage later emerged of the away side as a Burnley fan filmed their star man dismantling the opposition fans, with Leeds fans standing and roaring again.
It is not the midfielder’s first encounter with Leeds fans after he was targeted during an under-21 game while playing for Man United and bit the crowd.
Before his move to Burnley, he was also linked with a move to Farke, which fans immediately insisted would not happen – and now they have been proven right.

Hannibal’s play style also contributes to his personality – as an aggressive and combative midfielder who is not afraid to win challenges.
But that style can often prove frustrating for the home crowd and led to plenty of abuse from the support at Elland Road before the incident.
His time at Old Trafford with Man United also played a role in the theater between him and the crowd.
With the animosity between the two parties already running high, Leeds fans took to social media as they continued to vent their anger at the Burnley player.
