Recap: A late flurry saw Leicester City dismantle Southampton by a score of 5-0 at the King Power on Tuesday evening. Abdul Fatawu gave the Foxes a half-time advantage of 1-0 with a (possibly offside) strike midway through the half.

The first half ended goalless and, honestly, chanceless. Ryan Longman scored a world to give the Lions the lead as the Foxes didn’t generate any threat at all until the final ten minutes and couldn’t find a way through. That was brutal. For 80 minutes, the performance was worse than any we’ve put in this year. xG may suggest that City deserved more from the match, but in this case, xG would be a dirty liar. The Foxe ..read more
