Tottenham Hotspur star Pedro Porro gave a hilarious response to being hit by a vape thrown from the crowd during his side’s trip to Elland Road on Saturday.
The incident came during a hard-fought clash in Yorkshire, with Thomas Frank’s side eventually winning 2-1 thanks to goals from Mohammed Kudus and Mathys Tel.
While limbering up to take a corner in front of the home end, the Spaniard was struck by a pink vape which he picked up and pretended to smoke, much to the amusement of the on-looking Leeds fans.
But Porro’s jokes didn’t stop there, with the full-back once again referencing the incident in a humorous post on Instagram this afternoon.
Sharing a photo of him showing the the vape to the referee, Porro wrote: ‘Didn’t feel like vaping today, fancied getting three points instead (laughing emojis)’.
The victory saw Spurs, who were without a win in two before today, climb to second in the Premier League table after a promising start to Frank’s tenure.

Speaking post-match, the former Brentford manager praised his side’s character, admitting that he’s ‘very happy’ with his start to life in north London.
Frank told reporters: ‘I think if you want to build any successful team you need mentality and character and cohesion and togetherness.
‘No matter if you play like Inter or Barcelona or whatever style of play, you need that willingness to do everything to win, and I think we are building that more and more in the team.’
Asked whether he’s pleased with Spurs’ start to the season, the Dane added: ‘Yes of course I am. I think 14 points in seven. You know, that’s very good.
‘So that’s all it is, a start. I’m extremely happy that we now on the road have won three and (got) a draw, which I think that’s part of that.
‘If you want to achieve anything, you need to do that.’
Frank also singled out Mathys Tel for praise after he bagged his first goal of the campaign.
The Frenchman, who joined Spurs on a permanent deal in the summer from Bayern Munich, has endured a particularly difficult couple of months. After missing a crucial penalty in Spurs’ Super Cup clash with PSG, the 20-year-old was brutally omitted from his side’s Champions League squad.

‘So, so emotional about him,’ the boss said.
‘So happy for him. I think the character he’s shown from a young man just really impressed me from day one. But of course after a setback, not coming in the Champions League squad, not being an established player.
‘Maybe playing a good position where I really can see him play and I think he’s taking steps. Also been picked a little bit for the left. So just keep training well, which he does. He trains well every day.
‘Stay at home, when we the whole team went to Bodo, he trained well. Just ready today.’
