The Aviva Stadium played host to the friendly as the Spanish side secured a 3-1 win over the Premier League champions.
Leeds target Deossa scored the second goal of the night and it was easily the best.
He took aim from approximately 25 yards, caught the ball perfectly and found the top right corner with venom.
Kepa Arrizabalaga had no chance as the ball lasered in with unbelievable power.
