LONDON - Leicester City shook off chastening back-to-back defeats with a 2-1 victory at West Ham United to renew their distant chase of Premier League leaders Liverpool on Saturday.
Gray had an early penalty saved by West Ham’s returning keeper Lukasz Fabianski but Iheanacho headed Leicester into a deserved lead in the 40th minute.But there was a lack of belief from a West Ham side without a home win since September and Leicester regained the lead in the 56th minute when Gray finished off a superb counter-attack.
A second successive Christmas defeat for West Ham leaves them one point and one place above the relegation zone with manager Manuel Pellegrini now under even more pressure ahead of a crucial New Year’s clash with Bournemouth. “If you’re not playing so much you have to try and stamp your mark and get yourself in the team. It just shows the quality and depth we’ve got in the team.”
First, he clattered into Iheanacho to concede a penalty but redeemed himself by saving Gray’s spot kick.
