Leeds United's shock win over Manchester City on Saturday was Marcelo Bielsa's first over Pep Guardiola, and it was achieved through a remarkable statistical anomaly.

Bielsa's side prevailed 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium through Stuart Dallas' double, sandwiched by Ferran Torres' close-range strike, despite spending most of the game on the back foot, with captain Liam Cooper sent off before half-time.

City racked up 29 shots to Leeds' two, but it was the visitors who proved the more clinical as they scored from unlikely positions on both occasions.

Indeed, Leeds' expected goals (xG) total for the game was 0.1 compared to 2.0 for City.

Dallas' 91st-minute winner saw Leeds become the first team since Opta began tracking xG for the Premier League in 2010-11 to win a game by scoring twice with an xG of 0.1.

Tottenham scored twice with an xG of 0.1 against City in August 2019, but that contest ended in a draw.

With City hitting the target just seven times and their 29 attempts bringing a meagre xG return, Guardiola accepted the runaway league leaders did not create enough quality chances.

"It was not clear the chances, we shoot but not much clear. We arrive in the final third but after that we could not create much," he told BT Sport.

And the City boss shrugged off the smash-and-grab nature of Leeds' win, pointing to similar circumstances in Paris Saint-Germain's 3-2 win over Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

PSG triumphed by scoring three times from six shots with an xG of 1.3, while Bayern had 31 shots and an xG of 3.8.

"The last game in Champions League, Bayern Munich had [31] and PSG [six] and PSG won the game," added Guardiola, whose side will look to avoid a repeat performance in four days' time when they face Borussia Dortmund.

City lead 2-1 from their home first leg as they hope to progress to the last four of Europe's elite club competition.

City hold a 2-1 lead from the first leg but could be met with a similar rearguard action if Dortmund take the lead needing only a 1-0 win to go through.
