Leon Bailey was delighted helping Aston Villa to victory over Leeds United.

Bailey struck in the 2-1 win on Friday night.

He later said, "For us tonight was really important. We enjoyed the game and showed a really good team spirit. It was great to have the fans on their feet again. It is nice to get a win again at Villa Park.

"It was definitely the perfect start, we couldn't have asked for anything better. It was brilliant from the first moment and it was great to see the team there for each other from the first moment to the last.

"It was definitely a relief to see the ball go in. It was definitely coming. I've had some moments where the ball wouldn't go in but I'm glad to take that opportunity today.

"It was very important for us to get the three points, we needed the fans to get that winning feeling. I hope we can keep consistent now."
