Inigo Calderon delighted his legions of fans at the Amex tonight - by scoring with his beard.
The popular Basque followed up a drive by Beram Kayal which came back off the keeper as Albion beat Leeds.
The ball smacked into Calderon's face and hit him on the*right cheek - well protected as*ever by those trademark thick*whiskers - before flying into the net.

• Not such a close shave as Calderon scores with his beard!
• Your vote, your say - who was Albion's man of the match against Leeds?
• Albion move further clear of drop zone with excellent home win
• Enjoy the view - Albion haven't been this far up the table for nearly five months
• Hughton pleased with contribution of the recalled Mackail-Smith

That bizarre finish rewarded Calderon's desire to get into the goalmouth and gave the Seagulls their killer second in a convincing 2-0 success.He saw the funny side as he ran to the North Stand slapping*that side of his face.
He then shared the joke with team mates after his third goal in front of the North Stand in four days.
