Haaland fires blanks but Man City beats Leeds

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 08:59:13 GMT

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — While Sam Allardyce managed to stop Erling Haaland on Saturday, he could not halt Manchester City’s relentless march toward the English Premier League title. Two first-half goals from Ilkay Gundogan saw the defending champions beat Leeds 2-1 at Etihad Stadium and extend their lead at the top of the table to four points. But the relegation-threatened visitors, in new manager Allardyce’s first game in charge, provided a late scare when substitute Rodrigo struck moments after Gundogan missed from the penalty spot. Ultimately, City extended its unbeaten run to 20 games in all competitions and moved Pep Guardiola closer to a third straight league title. With second-placed Arsenal facing a difficult trip to Newcastle on Sunday, City’s lead could look even more commanding by the end of the weekend. Leeds’ sorry run stands at six games without a win, with the fight for survival becoming more desperate by the week.Gundogan’s goals in t...

By DANICA KIRKA and JILL LAWLESS (Associated Press)LONDON (AP) — King Charles III was crowned Saturday at Westminster Abbey, in a ceremony steeped in ancient ritual and brimming with bling at a time when the monarchy is striving to remain relevant in a fractured modern Britain.At a coronation with displays of royal power straight out of the Middle Ages, Charles was presented with an orb, a sword and scepter and had the solid gold, bejeweled St. Edward’s Crown placed atop his head as he sat upon a 700-year-old oak chair.In front of world leaders, foreign royals, dignitaries and a smattering of stars, Charles declared: “I come not to be served but to serve.” Inside the medieval abbey, trumpets sounded, and the congregation of more than 2,000 shouted “God save the king!” Outside, thousands of troops, hundreds of thousands of spectators and scores of protesters converged.It was the culmination of a seven-decade journey for the king from heir to monarc...
