Leicester City’s battle against relegation from Division 1 suffered a hit with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Liverpool.

Josh Gordon had given Leicester a first-half lead at Holmes Park but Rhian Brewster (pictured above) inspired a turnaround, the 17-year-old equalising after the interval before assisting Matty Virtue and Harry Wilson. 

The defeat means Leicester remain a point above Derby County and Reading, the two clubs in the relegation zone.

Leicester next play at Reading on Monday 24 April, while Derby play Southampton this Friday.

Liverpool’s win boosts their faint hopes of catching second-placed Manchester City, whom they play next Monday.
