Manchester City v Leeds ratings: Fernandinho 8, Joao Cancelo 5; Stuart Dallas 9, Luke Ayling 8


  • English

Manchester City fell to just a fourth Premier League defeat of the season as 10-man Leeds United stunned the runaway leaders thanks to Stuart Dallas's double in a 2-1 win at the Etihad on Saturday.

Dallas opened the scoring three minutes before half-time, but hopes of a famous win for Marcelo Bielsa's men seemed to evaporate when captain Liam Cooper was shown a red card in first-half stoppage time.

The visitors withstood City's charge until Ferran Torres equalised 14 minutes from time.

But Leeds still summoned the energy to threat on the counter-attack and were rewarded when Dallas slotted below Ederson.
