Pep Guardiola explains Erling Haaland Manchester City penalty anger after Norwegian's kindness almost backfired

Pep Guardiola has explained why he was so angry that Erling Haaland delegated penalty duties to Ilkay Gundogan during Manchester City’s 2-1 win over Leeds.

The Citizens have overtaken Arsenal at the top of the English Premier League table and have their foot on the accelerator as they motor towards the title with four games to play.

The gap is only four points though, and they were given a late scare by battling Leeds when Rodrygo halved the deficit to ensure a nervy finish at the Etihad.

They had the chance to put the game to bed before then after being awarded a spot kick. With Gundogan on a hat-trick, hotshot Haaland offered him the ball rather than stepping up himself, having already netted an incredible 35 league goals this season.
