Young Foxes Secure Premier League Cup Win In Hull
In the first game of the Premier League Cup, City's youngsters staked an early claim in the competition by beating Hull City on the travels, as the new campaign starts to gain momentum.
Pressing pause on their Premier League 2 season, which recently saw the Foxes fall to a 3-1 defeat to Fulham at Motspur Park; summer signing Michael Golding scoring the only City goal that day.
With just one win in their previous four, the victory over the Tigers comes at an important time in the schedule to help Leicester's Under-21s get back on track, with a two week break now on the cards.
The only goal of the game, from Jake Evans with 38 minutes on the clock, was enough to settle the scoreline as a relatively young squad look to make a statement in Academy football, following the departure of several regular Under-21 players such as Sammy Braybrooke, Wanya Marçal and Brandon Cover, who will all spend the year on loan, developing in senior football.
Picking up three points in Group B of the Premier League Cup in East Yorkshire, the Foxes' attention now reverts back to the day job, as they await the visit of Middlesborough in PL2 on Monday 23 September to LCFC Training Ground (7pm BST kick-off).
The details...
City: Bausor; Wormleighton, Gray, Amartey, Aluko; Cartwright, Page; Evans, Onanaye, Monga (Dyke 83'); Pennant (King 71').
Subs not used: French, Khela, Otchere.
Goal: Evans 38'.
