Leeds United: 2023/24 Season Stats
Leeds United Goals Since 1991/92
This page is a documented record of every goal Leeds United have scored in competitive matches going back to the start of the 1991/92 season. I believe this page is the only public source available that has an accurate breakdown of every competitive goal Leeds have scored stretching back 33 years.
James Milner remains the youngest player to ever score a competitive goal for Leeds United at 16 years and 356 days old in a 2-1 Premier League win at Sunderland on December 26th 2002. He scored in the 50th-minute assisted by Jason Wilcox to level the game at 1-1 before Robbie Fowler's late goal sealed the away victory under Terry Venables.
Winger Eddie Burbanks remains the oldest player to ever score a competitive goal for Leeds United at 40 years and 148 days in a 4-3 defeat at Swansea Town in Division Two under Raich Carter.
All the famous goals Leeds have scored in recent years are documented here. From Rod Wallace's individual brilliance against Tottenham in 1994, Tony Yeboah's iconic strikes against Liverpool and Wimbledon in 1995, Harry Kewell's outside of the boot strike against Sheffield Wednesday in 2000, Mark Viduka's third goal of four in a virtuoso performance against Liverpool in 2000, Jermaine Beckford's iconic Old Trafford winner in 2010, Souleymane Doukara's volley against Nottingham Forest in 2017, Pablo Hernandez's unforgettable goal after 16 seconds against West Brom in 2019, Patrick Bamford's sensational FA Cup Third Round strike against Peterborough in 2024 and Daniel James' 57-yard strike against Hull City in April 2024.
Leeds have scored six goals in the opening minute of Premier League games in the club's history, but none of them have come at Elland Road.

Assists made after the 2012/13 season are officially recognised by Opta. All assists pre-2012/13 follow the same conditions and have been thoroughly researched through match clips and cross-referenced with national football archives and Leeds United match reports from various credible online and offline sources.
Assists are not awarded for winning penalties or being involved in own-goals. Assists are awarded for shots that hit the woodwork and rebound to a teammate who has scored.
Free-kick goals are scored following a passage of play that originated from an indirect free-kick. Direct free-kick goals are scored directly from the free-kick taker without any other player involvement. Throw in goals are scored from a phase of play that originated from a throw-in. Penalty rebounds are goals scored from a follow up shot after the initial penalty was not converted.
