In a thrilling show, Abu Kamara, a Sierra Leonean footballer, netted two goals as struggling Hull City came from behind to earn a point at home against Championship leaders Leeds United in an exciting contest.

Kamara opened the scoring line early, but Ao Tanaka equalized for Leeds right after  halftime.

Dan James then put Leeds ahead in the 62nd minute, followed by Joel Piroe who capitalized on a mistake by Hull goalkeeper Ivor Pandur, leading to a it 3-1 victory.

It marks Kamara’s third goal of the season since joining Hull City from Norwich City, thereby showcasing his impact in a game that many did not expect Hull to have managed to play well in given Leeds in a strong form as they sit at the top of the league table.

Hull City head coach Ruben Selles told BBC Radio: “It’s a lesson for all of us aiming for a squad building.”

“Abu is an honest kid and we can all have bad days, and thus we needed to protect him and we did that and it paid off.

“Sometimes you can misinterpret people, it’s important for the club and the dressing room to be able to support him to show that we are strong together.

Daniel Farke, Leeds United boss also told fans: “disappointed is probably the right word. In the first half, we were not sharp enough in both boxes and if we are 2% less then it’s difficult to win points.

“It was a good reaction in the second half. We were in control with 3-1 and could have scored a fourth, fifth or sixth goal, especially with Daniel James having a one-on-one chance.”
