Sam Allardyce's first game in charge of relegation-battling Leeds United ended in defeat as title favorites Manchester City recorded a 2-1 success at the Etihad despite a late scare from the Whites.

City went ahead in the 19th minute through Ilkay Gundogan who hammered home a low drive into the bottom right corner following a pull back from Riyad Mahrez who had cut in from the right flank and evaded Junior Firpo.

The hosts then doubled their lead in almost carbon copy fashion eight minutes later as Mahrez again escaped Firpo down the right and sent another ball back for Gundogan who this time sent another low shot into the opposite corner from similar range.
