'My heart is full' - Leeds United fans react as Gaetano Berardi makes long-awaited comeback
Berardi featured for 45 minutes at Crystal Palace for United's Under-23s side as he made his first appearance since last July.
The 32-year-old centre-back suffered a torn ACL at Derby County amid promotion celebrations and was handed a one-year extension despite his contract expiring.
Here's what Leeds fans had to say about his return...
@bethgabriel_ My heart is very very full.
@fonzie92 Tears of joy.

Hide Ad@Jason197110 Brilliant to see Beradi back and Poveda too.Hopefully some time next month,Bielsa will have a full strength squad to pick from for the first time this season.Would give us a hell of a strong bench too with some of our toughest games in April.
@LeeCox1986 Good to see Berardi is back #LUFC
@c_larkbradley My love for Berardi knows no bounds, get him on the pitch in the prem.
@LufcLuca_ And there’s the Berardi killer tackle.
@CoachMikeJG Great to see Berardi back after his awful injury #lufc
@bobjackson9 Great to see Berardi back playing!
@SalimLamraniOff Gaetano “The Lion” Berardi is back!!!
@andijam82 So Berardi has done 45 mins for the u23s. You just know if he gets a first team game this season he either hits a world beating goal or gets set off. More likely sent off mind you.
@AllStatsArentWe Am I paying £3 to watch the Return of Gaetano Berardi? You're damn straight I am...
