In a key match in the 22nd round of the English Premier League that ended in the early morning of February 22, Beijing time, Leicester City lost 0-4 at home to Brentford and continued to be in the bottom 2 of the standings, and the fate of relegation seems to be difficult to change.
In this game, Leicester City collapsed early in the first half. Just 17 minutes into the game, Leicester City conceded an early goal. Dams' high cross and Wissa scrambled to break the deadlock for Brentford.
Ten minutes later, Damsgaard crossed the ball and Mbehumone cut into the corner to extend Brentford's advantage to 2-0.
In the 32nd minute, Mbeumo took a free-kick and Nel headed home to seal a 3-0 win for Brentford after half-time.
Although it was only half time, many Leicester City fans, who could not stand the performance of the home team, began to leave the stadium early in protest, and the scene erupted into strong boos.The 48-year-old coach Ruud van Nistelrooy crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking dazed and at a loss.
In the 89th minute, Mbewumo's shot was blocked, Fabio Carvalho scored in the rebound, and in the end, Leicester had to accept a bitter 0-4 result.
After the defeat at home,Leicester City have suffered six consecutive home defeats without conceding 15 goals without scoring a goal, becoming the first team in the history of the English top flight to lose six in a row at home without scoring a goal.This record is indeed a disgrace.
At present, Leicester City has only 17 points from 26 games, and there is still a gap of two points from Wolves in 17th place in the league with one more game. Considering that Leicester City has not bottomed out at all, they are likely to suffer the tragedy of the Premier League's "first round tour".
