From the end of January, the unlucky "Leicester City" once again remembered the taste of victory in the English Premier League matches.
Brendan Rodgers' coached "foxes" on Monday evening at home crushed "Aston Villa" 4-0 and ended a four-game winless streak.
In the 40th minute, Harvey Barnes put the "Leicester" team ahead. In the second half, Jamie Vardy, who appeared on the field after a substitution, also had his say.
In the 63rd minute, the striker scored his first goal with just a touch of the ball - as soon as he appeared on the field, he converted an 11-meter penalty.
J. Vardy scored the third goal in the 80th minute, and the final point was added 5 minutes later by H. Barnes with another precise shot.
The "Leicester" team had only managed to get two points in the last four matches. This victory helped them regain a 5-point lead over London's fourth-placed "Chelsea."
"Aston Villa" remains in the penultimate position with 25 points.
