Premier League!! Southampton Destroy Reigning Champions Leicester City 3-0
Leicester City remain winless away from home in the Premier League this season after being completely outclassed by Southampton at St Mary’s.
Claude Puel’s hosts, defeated in each of their past four league games, dominated from the first whistle and deservedly went ahead through James Ward-Prowse’s first goal in 22 games.
Ward-Prowse’s free-kick helped set up the second for Jay Rodriguez, before Dusan Tadic’s late penalty set the seal on a one-sided victory.
Champions Leicester have now gone 11 games without an away league victory this season – having won 11 times on their travels en route to the title. The 37 goals they have conceded in 22 games so far is one more than the total shipped in the whole of last season.
Defeat leaves Claudio Ranieri’s side three places and five points above the relegation zone.
Southampton climb to 11th place having comfortably avoided the ignominy of equalling the club’s top-flight record of five consecutive defeats, set in 1998.
