Leeds United FC 1-3 Manchester City FC-Man City moves up a spot as Haaland breaks another record.

Manchester City won 3-1 at Leeds United with a second-half hat trick from Erling Haaland, moving them back into second position.
The first half belonged to City, who outshot Leeds 16 to 1, but it took until extra time at the conclusion of the first half for the game to be broken when Rodri nudged the ball past Illan Meslier after the French goalkeeper had stopped Riyad Mahrez. After the halftime, Haaland grabbed center stage, scoring on 51 minutes after Jack Grealish set him up for a tap-in. This was his 19th goal of the season.
On the stroke of halftime, Grealish again set up Haaland's second goal, the Norwegian scoring his 20th Premier League goal in just 14 games—beating Kevin Phillips by seven games to set a new record for the fastest player to reach that milestone in the league.
With 17 minutes left to play, Leeds' Pascal Struijk scored a goal, but City held on to secure the victory. Leeds maintains their position in 15th place with 15 points, two points above the relegation zone, while City falls five points behind leaders Arsenal.
