Pep Guardiola has chastised Erling Haaland for allowing Ilkay Gundogan to take and miss a late penalty for Manchester City, despite his team-mate being on for a hat-trick and the reigning champions being 2-0 up.
Guardiola was seen yelling at Haaland in the aftermath of Gundogan's effort hitting the post: "You have to take it!" Soon after, Sam Allardyce 's Leeds side pulled a goal back and made it a nervier ending than anticipated at the Etihad Stadium, with City enjoying total control of the game up until the 85th minute on Saturday afternoon.
The Citizens still managed to come away with a crucial 2-1 win thanks to a first-half brace from Gundogan, extending their lead over Arsenal in the Premier League title race to four points. Post-match, Guardiola was asked about the penalty incident and made his feelings on the matter clear.
