Despite the result, it was a gritty performance, at least in the first half, by the majority of the Leicester players in a game that lacked quality and started with both sides looking quite nervous.

Towards the end, as desperation increased, there were moments that turned unsavoury, with Hamza Choudhury clashing with officials and the home fans, while some of the players were also involved in a verbal altercation with opposition players towards the end.

Midfielder Harry Winks was also seen shouting at a fan after the game as he was boarding the team coach.

On the pitch, Leicester had some chances to score and on another day could have taken an early lead when Patson Daka went down from Conor Shaughnessy's challenge that had the away fans calling for a spot-kick.

Daka also had a great chance in the second half when Regan Poole underhit a backpass and if he could have knocked it past Nicolas Schmid then they could have been leaving the south coast with a point.

Despite winning only two league games in 2026 and losing 18 times all season, the Foxes will need to win their remaining three games and hope other results go their way to stand any chance of staying up.
