Leicester Punish Errors as Stoke Fall 2-1 Despite Second-Half Surge

Robins demands a home rebound to safeguard Stoke’s third place.

Overview

  • Stephy Mavididi opened the scoring and Patson Daka added a first goal in 39 Leicester appearances on the stroke of half-time.
  • Bae Junho halved the deficit after the break for his first goal since March, but Stoke’s pressure yielded no equaliser.
  • Both Leicester goals stemmed from Stoke mistakes in possession, with the hosts converting their only two shots on target.
  • Former Potters goalkeeper Asmir Begovic produced decisive saves and clashed with Divin Mubama in stoppage time.
  • About 3,000 travelling supporters applauded Stoke at full-time, with a midweek visit from Charlton starting a two-match home run Robins says must bring wins.
