Not long ago, "Leicester City" who once posed a competition for "Liverpool" is deepening the hole. Brendan Rodgers' players suffered an unexpected loss in the 23rd round of the English Premier League.
"Leicester" admitted defeat to the "Burnley" team on the road, which had experienced four consecutive failures before this round.
In the 33rd minute, Harvey Barnes put the "foxes" ahead, but the second half did not go as planned for the guests from Leicester.
Chris Wood equalized the score in the 56th minute. In the 68th minute, "Leicester" could have regained the lead, but Jamie Vardy missed a penalty kick.
Instead of having an advantage in goals, "Leicester" players were forced to pull the ball out of their net in the 79th minute - "Burnley" secured victory with a precise goal from Ashley Westwood.
This was the third defeat for "Leicester" in the last five league matches. After "Chelsea" failed, the "foxes" can feel safe in third place.
