I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'go in the city' is the definition.
'Leeds' can be an answer for 'city' (city in England). I'm not sure about the 'go in the' bit.

'showed the way on saturday with last chance' is the wordplay.
'showed the way' becomes 'led' (lead can mean to show someone the way).
'on' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'saturday' becomes 's'.
'with' is an insertion indicator.
'last' indicates one should take the final letters.
The final letter of 'chance' is 'e'.
'led'+'s'='leds'
'leds' enclosing 'e' is 'LEEDS'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for leeds that I've seen before include "West Yorkshire city" , "Industrial city of northern England" , "Yorks city" , "22 [FA CUP] runners-up" , "W Yorkshire city" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
