Phil Foden scored twice as Manchester City made up ground in the Premier League title race after almost blowing a two-goal lead against strugglers Leeds.

Foden scored the first of his brace with just 59 seconds on the clock and Josko Gvardiol doubled their advantage in the 25th minute.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin led Leeds’ fightback as he poked home after Nunes diverted the ball into his path and Lukas Nmecha converted his second attempt from the penalty spot after Calvert-Lewin had been fouled.

Foden instead came to City’s rescue with an unerring left-foot finish into the bottom left corner in stoppage time.

The result moves City up to second in the table, four points behind leaders Arsenal, while it is a sixth defeat in seven top-flight matches for Leeds.

In other games, Sunderland came from two goals down to beat Bournemouth 3-2 and go fourth in the Premier League table while Brentford striker Igor Thiago took his tally for the season to 11 goals in 13 games with a late double as the Bees inflicted a fourth-straight defeat on struggling Burnley.
