Leicester Defeats Liverpool 3-1

If ever a team needed to win a game, that team was Leicester FC and that game was today's match against Liverpool. The embattled Premier League Champs have taken to the skids basically since the season started and the club have just sacked their manager Claudio Ranieri to boot. Thus, today's convincing victory over Liverpool came as sweet manna from heaven and I can only imagine is an enormous relief for interim manager Craig Shakespeare. Nothing like starting off with a big fat juicy three points vs a top six club, especially when you're teetering on the edge of the relegation zone. Leicester have a long, long way to go to get out of the woods. And today's win doesn't mean all of a sudden the club's problems are fixed, but it's a nice breather. Goals by Vardy (28' & 60') and Drinkwater (39') for Leicester, and Coutinho (68') for the Reds.
