Sky Sports presenter Jeff Stelling has apologised to the Leeds United fans on Twitter.

Stelling has apologised for the way he reacted on Soccer Saturday on Sky Sports News today when Leeds scored the winner against Manchester City.

Stuart Dallas scored late in the game to help Marcelo Bielsa’s side to a 2-1 win against City away from home at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

The Northern Ireland international had opened the scoring in the first half as well.

Leeds played the entire second half with 10 men after Liam Cooper was sent off late in the first period.

City pressed on in the second half and tried to make the most of their one-man advantage, but Leeds were very disciplined at the back and kept things tight.

Then late in the game, Bielsa’s side hit City on the counter and Dallas scored a very good goal to secured a deserved three points.

It was a remarkable win for Leeds, and Sky Sports presenter Stelling has now apologised to the fans for using the expression ‘daylight robbery’ on the show.
