Leicester City suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat to Brentford at the King Power Stadium on Friday, setting an unwanted Premier League record in the process.
This marked their sixth consecutive home loss without scoring, the longest such run by any team in a single top-flight season in English football history as noted by Softfootball.
Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi started the match and played for 77 minutes before being substituted for Oliver Skipp, but he was unable to prevent the collapse.
Brentford took control early with Yoane Wissa opening the scoring in the 17th minute, followed by goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Christian Nørgaard to make it 3-0 by halftime.
Fábio Carvalho added a fourth late on after goalkeeper Mads Hermansen had initially saved Mbeumo’s effort. The result left Leicester fans booing at the final whistle, marking their tenth defeat in eleven games. This historic low point underscores the severe crisis facing the club as they struggle to find form and confidence at home.
