Champions Fall On a Very First Day


Premier League champions Leicester City begin their new season with 2-1 loss over newly promoted Hull City.

 The Tigers begin their season with a bang having only 13 senior players fit for action, they were in such a crises with their best player Jack Livermore played out of position in the center of defense and without permanent manager, yet they are off to a dream start.

 It’s the first time that the defending champions have lost their first match of the season since 1989-90.

 Claudio Ranieri’s men were disorganized in all areas of the pitch as they paid the price for awful defending at the back. First, Diomande opened the scoring with a fine overhead kick right before half time, but soon Leicester recover from that scalp courtesy of a soft penalty from Riyad Mahrez. Leicester looking to get some rhythm back, but then again punished as Robert Snodgrass fired Hull in the lead in the 57th min with a fine long range drive.
