Manchester City wins, and despite what the narrow 2-1 result says, at the "Etihad", the unfortunate Leeds of new coach Sam Allardys, remains closed in defense, but the match is quickly resolved by Ilkai Gyndoani's double in the 19th minute. and the 27th.
The German midfielder, before being replaced, had the opportunity to score the third goal, but the penalty ball that should have hit Erling Haaland, stopped on the post. Pep Guardiola did not hide his anger with the Norwegian attacker, while he repeated several times from the bench that he should have executed the 11-meter penalty. But the "citizens" successfully passed the next test and climbed to the quota of 82 points, registering the 10th consecutive victory in the championship. They are unbeaten in 20 matches in all competitions and with this success they took another step towards the historic treble.
I want whoever has this task to hit him, because he is more fit and specialist. He has hit 10 or 11 penalties and has this security, while Gyndoan does not have it at this moment. I admire the fact that Gyndoan wanted responsibility for penalties, but their taker is Erling and he should have taken it because he is our specialist. In this match Haland could have scored 2-3 goals. He played very well, with his movement and how he fought for us. I like to praise him when he doesn't score. If Gyndoan had scored the penalty, it would have been 'OK, triple and bravo'. But the executor is the executor. But with the result 2-0 this is a business and not an unforgettable personal situation for us".
