Sky Sports reporter Geoff Shreeves shared a video of it happening to Twitter with the caption: "We know Antonio Conte is big on detail but this is unreal!
"Sideline being groomed by hand."
An equally sharp-looking Conte later charged up and down the same touchline as Spurs fought from a goal behind to secure their first league win under the Italian.
Dan James handed Leeds a first half lead as Spurs failed to have a shot on target for a record EIGHTH half in a row.
But two second half strikes from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Sergio Reguilon completed a second half turnaround to give the hosts' European hopes a boost.
The 52-year-old punched the air as the final whistle went and hugged every single one of his players.
Match-winner Reguilon revealed what his manager said to the team at half-time after the game.
The Spaniard said: "I’m the happiest person in the world - it’s my first goal in the Premier League and we got three points.
"The gaffer wants me to keep arriving in the box - arrive, arrive, arrive - and also defend. I’m dead but I’m so happy.
“Leeds started really well. At half-time the gaffer told us to go man to man and we did.
"We lost the first half but we had the mentality of a big team and we got the three points... I’m sorry, I’m dead...
“We knew we had to give more [when Spurs were booed off at half-time].
"The gaffer told us we had to play with passion and two balls*. We got three points and we continue!”
