At 19:30 in the English Premier League, the twelfth round of matches took place.
The "Leicester City" team, showcasing amazing form, delivered another blow to the London "Arsenal" team at home. In the second half, the "Foxes" sealed the victory with a 2-0 result.
Having won four consecutive matches in the league, the "Arsenal" team stumbled right from the start of the game. However, the hosts had to wait until midway through the second half for their goal.
In the 68th minute, after a brilliant combination in the "Arsenal" penalty area, Jamie Vardy accurately directed the ball into the net.
Just seven minutes later, the same J. Vardy responded with an assist - receiving the ball in the penalty area, the striker spotted an unmarked James Maddison, who increased the "Foxes" lead to two goals with a clever shot.

Meanwhile, "Leicester City" climbed to second place before the leaders' clash tomorrow, reducing the gap from "Liverpool" to five points at least temporarily.
