Leicester City come from behind to beat West Bromwich Albion 4-1, condemning the bottom-of-the-table Baggies to a sixth straight defeat.
West Bromwich Albion have slumped to their sixth consecutive Premier League defeat courtesy of a 4-1 loss at the hands of Leicester City at The Hawthorns this afternoon.
The Baggies took the lead after only eight minutes when Salomon Rondon gave Alan Pardew's strugglers the perfect start to the match, but Jamie Vardy levelled things up midway through the first half.
Riyad Mahrez then scored for the second game in a row to give the Foxes the lead after the interval, before Kelechi Iheanacho added a third as Leicester moved towards their first win in six games.
Vicente Iborra then capped off the scoring with a late fourth as West Brom slumped to another defeat, leaving them still eight points adrift of safety with now only eight games of the season remaining.
It all started so well for the hosts as they broke the deadlock inside the opening 10 minutes, with Oliver Burke's low cross into the box picking out Rondon, who turned the ball home from close range.
Leicester responded well to that early setback, but it was West Brom who again came close to scoring next when Grzegorz Krychowiak was denied by the crossbar after 15 minutes.
That was a moment which could have changed the game, but the Baggies had dropped a league-high 18 points from winning positions ahead of this match and Vardy soon set them on the path to increasing that unwanted tally.
