Relentless Man City keep winning as two-goal Gundogan outshines Haaland

MANCHESTER, England -- On coronation day in England, Manchester City moved closer to the Premier League title as they went four points clear at the top of the table with a 2-1 win over Leeds United.

City warmed up for their Champions League trip to Real Madrid on Tuesday with two goals from Ilkay Gundogan at the Etihad Stadium, although he missed a late penalty which would have completed his hat trick after taking the ball from Erling Haaland.

Rodrigo scored 90 seconds after Gundogan's miss, after a mistake from Manuel Akanji, to make for a nervous final few minutes, but Sam Allardyce's first game in charge of Leeds ended in defeat.
