Manchester City stunned as Leeds win at the Etihad
Manchester City’s title race in the English Premier League suffered a setback on Saturday as Leeds United grabbed a win at the Etihad stadium.
Though Liam Cooper, Leeds Skipper, was sent off the pitch for a rough tackle in the 45th minute of the game, 10-man Leeds went ahead to defeat City by 2-1.
Stuart Dallas’s brace gave the visiting team victory at the Etihad. Dallas netted the opener for Leeds in the dying minutes of the first half.
City came into the second half much stronger with Ferran Torres netting an equaliser in the 76th minute. However, Dallas made it two for the visitors in the 90th minute.
City are still first on the EPL table with 74 points in 32 games. But would need 11 points from their remaining six games to win the EPL title this season.
