Gary Lineker has taken to Twitter to react after Leeds recorded an astonishing 2-1 win over Manchester City earlier today.
Marcelo Bielsa’s men would’ve been heralded had they achieved the three points with 11 men, so to do it with just ten players was utterly remarkable.
After the full-time whistle sounded, the BBC Match of the Day host posted a nine-word verdict on Twitter.
You can see what Lineker wrote below.
This is arguably the result of the entire season.
Pep Guardiola’s men have won 27 of their last 29 games in all competitions, which is a quite ridiculous run of form.
For a newly promoted side, whose starting XI largely contained players who helped them out of the Championship, to beat such a formidable outfit is almost unbelievable.
Leeds somehow managed to limit one of the most free-scoring teams around to just one goal, inside their own stadium, and with just ten men for over 45 minutes.
The Citizens are Premier League champions elect, but they will end the campaign without a win over Leeds – fair play to the Whites.
The Yorkshire-based outfit managed to hold Manchester City to a 1-1 draw at Elland Road in the reverse fixture, and few people would’ve expected them to better that result today.
Bielsa, you really are a genius.
