Summary: Manchester City - Leeds 1:2 (Sport1)
Manchester City already found itself eight points away from Arsenal during the season, but today (Saturday) it is already the one that leaves dust for the Gunners.
After beating Leeds 1:2, she increased her advantage at the top to four points and is very close to winning a third championship in a row.
As you know, Arsenal, who have not yet played in the 35th round (they will host Newcastle tomorrow), still have four games left to play, but so does City, who must complete a missing game.
Arling Holland last season scored his 35th goal of the season in the Premier League, but today he recorded three huge misses.
Although City will host Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu for three more days in the semi-finals of the Champions League, Pep Guardiola did not put the Norwegian star on the bench - and was furious when the penalty kick from 11 meters towards the end was taken by Ilkay Gundohan who hoped to complete a hat trick, but kicked the crossbar.
A minute later Leeds narrowed to 2:1, but could not come back.
His fury could not be missed.

Immediately after the missed penalty, Guardiola could be seen during the broadcast losing his composure and screaming at Holland "You should have kicked!".
A few seconds later, the cameras again showed the grass and Rodrigo subduing Ederson and shrinking to 2:1 before the last five minutes of the match.
After the game, Guardiola said about it: "If Ilkay had scored and celebrated a hat-trick then fine, he is also a really excellent penalty kicker, but the game was not over, we only led 0:2 and we have a kicker and that is Arling Holland. At 0:4 with 10 remaining Minutes to the end I understand, but at 0:2? Holland is our best kicker and he should have taken it, even though he wanted to help Gundoin score a hat-trick. If we are leading 0:1 or 0:2, only the main kicker should kick."
