Leicester City has secured its place in the Premier League after defeating Aston Villa at King Power Stadium on Sunday evening. The Foxes triumphed 2-1 to move out of the relegation zone and into 17th position.
The match was a closely contested affair with both teams creating numerous opportunities to score. However, it was Leicester who emerged victorious thanks to goals from James Maddison and Christian Benteke. The former scored his first goal for the club while the latter netted his second of the season.
Leicester's victory was a major boost for their fans who had been struggling to see their team survive in the top flight this season. The win also puts them just three points behind West Bromwich Albion, who they face next week in the final game of the season.
Manager Craig Shakespeare praised his players for their performance, saying: "We knew that we were going to have to play really well today if we were going to secure our survival. We did that and I'm very proud of the way that we played."
Despite the win, there is still work to be done for Leicester as they will need to pick up some crucial points against West Brom and then hope for other results to go their way. But for now, they can celebrate their victory and look forward to the challenge ahead.
