Leicester Edge Stoke 2-1 as Begovic Denies Late Fightback

Mark Robins blamed two costly errors, urging an immediate response at home.

Overview

  • Stephy Mavididi and Patson Daka scored in the first half after Stoke mistakes in possession, with Bae Junho replying early in the second period.
  • Former Stoke goalkeeper Asmir Begovic produced key saves and slowed the game late on to preserve Leicester’s lead.
  • Robins argued Stoke "deserved something" but accepted that "two mistakes" decided the contest despite superior possession and roughly 11 shots.
  • Junho’s header marked his first goal since March, highlighting an improved second-half display that still lacked a clinical edge.
  • Stoke remain third in the Championship and turn to back-to-back home matches, beginning with Charlton on Tuesday.
