Manchester City moved to within two points of Premier League leaders Arsenal with a slender 1-0 victory at Leeds United. Antoine Semenyo scored the only goal of the game in first-half stoppage time, finishing from close range after City carved open the Leeds defence.
With Erling Haaland absent, Semenyo led the line and netted his sixth goal since joining City in January. The win temporarily reduced Arsenal's advantage before their match against Chelsea on Sunday.
Nico O'Reilly impressed again in an advanced midfield role, but the evening was marred by the sight of him hobbling off in the second half. City will hope the issue is not serious.
Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin had two early chances to add to his tally but failed to take them, though he remained a constant threat to the City defence.
City recorded their fourth straight win and second clean sheet in three matches, with January signing Marc Guehi forming part of a solid backline. The result piles pressure on Arsenal to respond in their weekend fixture.
