EPL- Wilfred Ndidi’s mistake sees Leicester lose to Aston Villa

In London Leicester City midfielder, Wilfred Ndidi, saw his misplaced pass lead to Aston Villa’s winning goal on Tuesday night in the Premier League.

A late strike from Bertrand Traore saw Unai Emery’s men clinch a dramatic 2-1 win against managerless Leicester, who are now two points from Premier League safety.

Leicester – who were under the charge of coaches Adam Sadler and Mike Stowell following the departure of Brendan Rodgers on Sunday – looked to be on course for a point before unravelling in the final 25 minutes.

It began as they went down to 10 players in the 70th minute. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall was sent off for a second bookable offence, before Bertrand Traore curled home a beautiful winner for Aston Villa after latching onto Wilfried Ndidi’s slack pass.

Leicester thought they had won a penalty in injury time too as Ollie Watkins was penalised for handball. But the spot kick was correctly overturned after the Villa striker was fouled by Patson Daka, adding to the Foxes misfortune.

It was the in-form Watkins – making his 100th Aston Villa appearance – who saw the visitors ahead in the first half as he rolled home his sixth successive away goal in the Premier League.
