Premier League: Leicester thrash Forest 4-0 to move off bottom

The Hindu  

Leicester City’s James Maddison scored two first-half goals as it crushed Nottingham Forest 4-0 on Monday to move off the bottom of the table with its first Premier League win of the season. The home victory in the East Midlands derby lifted some of the pressure off Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers and piled more on Forest’s Steve Cooper, whose promoted side are now last after a fifth straight defeat. Forest goalkeeper Dean Henderson’s nightmare evening continued when Maddison bagged his second with a perfectly flighted free kick in the 35th that flew over the wall and clipped the inside of the post as it went in. I said beforehand that it was a season-changing game if we could get a result here and push on.” The manager said he had used video of Leicester’s 4-1 defeat to Forest in the FA Cup fourth round last February as pre-match motivation for his players and Maddison said it worked a treat.
