Pep Guardiola is unhappy with Manchester City's 2-1 win over Leeds
Posted : 07 May 2023
Even though Manchester City defeated Leeds 2-1 to maintain their four-point lead atop the Premier League standings and control of the title race, manager Pep Guardiola wasn't satisfied.
Erling Haaland, a prolific scorer, and Ilkay Gundogan, the game's winner, were the ones who felt his fury as Guardiola reminded them that "this is a business" following a late penalty miss that gave Sam Allardyce's team a chance to tie the game.
With six minutes left, City was cruising to its tenth straight victory and had a chance to seal the deal when Phil Foden was brought down in the box.
Instead, Haaland gave the ball to Gundogan, who had already scored two goals and was now on a hat-trick.
Gundogan struck the post, and 58 seconds later Leeds scored to make the score 2-1, ensuring a tense conclusion to a match that City had utterly dominated.
His boss was not pleased with the choice and let both players know that he had preferred Haaland to take the penalty.
