Leicester City head, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, acknowledged that the defeat at tonight against Brentford represented a “big step back” for his fighter side.
Brentford exceeded a slow start to move on to a 4-0 victory at the King Power Stadium with the game effectively halfway with visitors establishing a three-go advantage thanks to the goals of Yane Wissa, Bryan Mbeumo and Christian Norgaard.
Fabio Carvalho added a room since Leicester remained inside the descent zone, to two points of security.
It was an alencing night for Van Nistelrooy with Leicester fans, making his disgust with many who left long before the end.

The former Netherlands striker told Sky Sports: “You have to recognize that it is a big step back. There was hope after recent performances and the beginning of the game had hopes with three opportunities. I could have changed the game. After the brilliant start of us, we never was in the game again and in the part -time the game was held. “
The record foxes that exceeds foxes
Leicester tonight established an unwanted record that became the first English high -flight side in history to lose six games at home without scoring.
“We all have to get up first and then get up,” added Van Nistelrooy. “That is always the case. Everyone is going home really disappointed and destroyed with the loss and disappointed with the levels we show today. We have to recognize it, the level between Brentford and the US. It was significant and a concern for future hope for us. ”
The captain of the Foxes, Jamie Vardy, fought hard to drive his side, but repeated defensive lapses meant that his efforts were wasted.
England’s former international said: “We have to continue working hard. We have performed some decent actions and need to do it consistently. We have to go back to training, see this and see where everything came out.
“There is a massive determination. There are three of the last four who are fighting for it. While we are with a cry, we will score and focus on putting decent actions. “
Excellent Brentford win again
Leicester’s misery was in a marked contrast to Brentford’s delight after ensuring his fourth successive victory of the Premier League for the first time.
Thomas Frank’s men moved to the tenth place after an excellent exhibition.
He said: “I think we have been quite consistent with the actions. That ability to win: this is the first two consecutive ones we have done this season, which is strange. We are in an ascending curve, so I hope we can continue with that.
“It is not easy to win in the Premier League and it is not easy to win. It is definitely not easy to win 4-0. I have good players, good staff and good leadership.
“I think they are all brilliant players, but what unit they believe playing together. One more one plus one, which normally equals 11 for a complete team, but is 14 or 15 for this team. Now we have won two in a row, but let’s see if we can get three in a row. ”
