TVC E, SPORTS – Leicester City have stunned title rivals Man city at the Etihad stadim with an astonishing 3-1 victory in the English Premier League.
Robert Huth’s double and a Riyad Mahrez goal were enough to send the Foxes six points clear at the top of the table after another exhilarating performance on Saturday.
Poor marking allowed defender Huth to sweep in Mahrez’s free kick, via a deflection off Martin Demichelis, after three minutes.
Playmaker Mahrez finished off a swift break to score his 14th league goal of a hugely impressive season and double Leicester’s lead three minutes into the second half.
Huth headed in a corner on the hour to make it 3-0, proving that Leicester, on 53 points from 25 games, have the quality and belief to make a sustained challenge for a first English top-flight crown.
Sergio Aguero headed a late consolation for the hosts.
