  7. 'The Dallas injury hurts'published at 20:04 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Jesse Marsch to Sky Sports: "Our fans were outstanding. The best performance tonight was our fans. The reason they were so into the match was they could see our boys played well.

    "I don’t think it’s a 4-0 match. We contained a lot of their really good players. If we could find a goal at 1-0 or 2-0 we could have made it more interesting.

    "We wanted to be aggressive in certain moments in wide areas. We felt we could push them up the field a bit more and they played some long balls. We defended well in most of the moments. For the majority of the game I felt like we were quite good and unfortunate not to come away with a smaller gap on the scoreline."

    On the free-kick for the first goal: "First on I don't think is a foul but whatever.

    "We know they’re good at set-pieces and get a lot of them.

    "Our guys showed up today. From the 20th to 70th minute we were really good. But this is what high level football is. It’s not just about good performances, it’s about scoring goals and preventing goals. A lot of good stuff from us."

    On injuries to Stuart Dallas and Liam Cooper: "The Dallas one hurts [Leeds]. We think it’s probably not good. He has such a big heart and he's such a big part of the mentality of our team. That one we feel. We hope Coops isn’t that bad. He just felt something in his knee. Diego Llorente was feeling something.

    "We’ll learn from today and can feel like we’re moving forward and making progress."

  8. 'We've been in this position many times'published at 20:03 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    FT: Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Manchester City

    Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "All the players were fantastic with the difficulty we suffered. They had some transitions in the last 25 minutes, but we played a really good game.

    "The last time I came here was behind closed doors. It’s the first time I’m here at Elland Road with the people. I’ve heard many, many times about the support and when they have transitions they become crazy. It was a joy to be here for the first time."

    On the title race: "We have been many times in this position. It’s not about the pressure – it’s simple. We have to win all our games to be champions. If we don’t, Liverpool will be champions.

    "There’s a lot of tough games to play. We now have to recover well and go to Madrid for the Champions League. That’s all."

    On a possible injury to Nathan Ake: "He had a bit [of a knock] with the ankle, but he was good enough to score."

  10. 'I love this team'published at 19:57 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Jesse Marsch to BBC Sport: "Our hearts and minds are with Stuart Dallas right now. It looks like a knee injury that’s not great. We hope he's OK.

    "The result was worse than we hoped but the performance was better.

    "We played with confidence. It didn't feel like a 4-0 match.

    "We had momentum and controlled their movements. It's disappointing to lose so big but even the fans and the way they responded after the game is a reflection of what the performance was.

    "I wasn’t being sarcastic when I said it was the best team against the best club. I’ve never seen supporters who love their club so deeply. I feel it on the streets, in the stadium. We’re doing everything we can to make sure we can stay in this league. We’re in for a fight but we’re up for it."

    On whether Liam Cooper's injury changed things: "It did a little bit but we were able to adjust quickly. Not ideal to lose your captain just before a game like this. We’re hoping he’ll be back for next weekend. It was a weird thing with his knee.

    "I love this team. I love these guys. They give everything every day. That makes me optimistic about our chances. We’ve tried to focus on ourselves and we’ve been able to manage.

    "You see the quality they have. They don’t need too many chances to make you pay."

  11. 'Every game feels like a final'published at 19:54 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    FT: Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Manchester City

    Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "Especially the second half was really good. We tried to keep the ball as much as possible. The intensity with which they started was quite high, which is why the first goal helped us. It was nothing that we didn’t expect. We are very happy about the result.

    "It was my first time playing here. The crowd is incredible. It’s a historic, big club. We expected that from the crowd. Even after the final whistle the atmosphere was incredible. It’s always tough to play against this side, because they have always played with that intensity and sharpness. Scoring the first goal was obviously a big advantage.

    "The pressure is always on from this point of the season. It doesn’t – or shouldn’t – really make a big difference if we play first or [Liverpool] play first, but it doesn’t look likely that either team is going to slip before the end of the season.

    "Every game feels like a final right now and every game has its own difficulties. We need to be ready for the challenge."

  14. 'We can’t be down from this result'published at 19:48 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Leeds United

    Leeds defender Luke Ayling to Sky Sports: "I thought we did really well for long spells of the game. We had a game plan and stuck to it.

    "Set-pieces have been our downfall this season.

    "We stuck to our game plan for the first 20 minutes. We had chances, caught them on the counter. But the set-piece goal was poor from us.

    "It’s hard at 1-0 because you’re chasing. And then we got done from another set-piece.

    "It felt like our press was good and we were forcing them into things they don’t usually do.

    "We’re playing against probably the best team in the world so it was always going to be tough.

    "We’ve got to score some goals and carve some results out. A lot of teams lose to City. We were unbeaten in five and have been playing well. We can’t be down from this result. We played well and were brave on the ball."

  15. 'An incredible result'published at 19:43 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    FT: Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Manchester City

    Man City boss Pep Guardiola talking to Sky Sports: "We knew coming here the way they play, we suffered a lot in the first half. But in the end we had control and could have scored more. An incredible result for us.

    "They are so fast up front. Today was so importanrt to make our chances to be champions again.

    "We defended well and sometimes these type of games set-pieces become so important. With Nathan Ake on the pitch, we are so strong.

    "What a game Laporte played, he is doing an incredible season. We have five games to go, potentially six until the end of the season.

    "I prefer to feel less pressure than I am feeling. It is a long season and this is the last effort."

  16. 'Very important to win in this way'published at 19:40 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Manchester City

    City defender Aymeric Laporte to Sky Sports: "I’m very happy because the team won. It’s very important to win in this way. It’s very important for us for the future."

    On his head injury: "I didn’t know. It was a big shock. I fell down and I didn’t know exactly what happened. Very quickly they asked me if I was good. They asked me questions if I remembered everything and if everything was OK so I could play."

  17. 'They made our lives difficult'published at 19:39 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Manchester City

    City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan to Sky Sports: "It was a huge test. Leeds started with a lot of intensity. They made our lives difficult.

    "The first goal helped us a lot. They were more than in the game in the first half. After the second one we could move the ball better and create chances."

    On his early block: "The key is to not panic in these situations. I’m not the quickest but I was able to get back and make the block. Defensively we were able to block a lot of shots today. Not conceding today was important. The next game in Madrid will be crucial."

    On Liverpool playing first: "It’s always as tough as you make it for yourself. We have to manage these situations. Sometimes they’ll play first. Sometimes we’ll play first. The responsibility is always there to win all the games. Every game is a final now."

  18. Postpublished at 19:31 British Summer Time 30 April 2022

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    City are one point above Liverpool with four games to go.

    Their goal difference is only two off the Reds now but the campaign is unlikely to come down to goal difference. For a start both sides would have to drop points which seems unlikely.

    Leeds 0-4 Man City

    Fernandinho set the record today for most Premier League appearances by a Brazilian (260). Willian had the old record.
