Raphinha came to Leeds' rescue with a superb curling finish to rescue a point against Everton in the club's first home Premier League game with a full stadium in 17 years.
The Brazilian, who scored home and away against the Toffees last season, struck with 18 minutes remaining of a pulsating, ferocious and frankly brilliant match played out to near constant noise from the stands.
Leeds had been behind twice, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin giving Everton a first-half lead with a penalty awarded via VAR and a low finish on the turn from the excellent Demarai Gray early in the second.
Mateusz Klich restored parity the first time courtesy of a dinked finish and Raphinha ensured a point apiece with his brilliant strike.
Afterwards, Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips said: "It's been amazing having the crowd back. The fans showed how much they've missed us and we've really missed them. Having a full crowd is like an extra man.
"We're disappointed not to take the three points, after a great finish from Raphinha. We all know what kind of player he is and to put it in the bottom corner first time like that was great
"It wasn't the best of us today. It's early in the season, and I feel like, especially me, could be a lot fitter and a lot stronger. Every team will create chances against us. We probably could have done better in the goals that they scored."
