LEEDS, England (AP) — Arsenal held on for a scrappy 1-0 win over Leeds in an eventful match brimming with controversy to stay top of the Premier League and extend its lead over second-place Manchester City. Leeds missed a penalty and had another overturned during a review in a game that was delayed for 40 minutes after an electrical fault at Elland Road led to the players coming off just two minutes in. After it resumed Bukayo Saka broke the deadlock in the 35th minute when the England winger slammed home an angled finish into the roof of the net after a pass from captain Martin Odegaard. Man City later lost 1-0 at Liverpool and is four points behind Arsenal.
