Leicester City secured another impressive win in the 2025/26 English Championship season, defeating Birmingham City 2-0 on Friday evening at the King Power Stadium.
Ghanaian winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku was the star of the night, scoring for the second game running to put the Foxes ahead. His lively display on the wings, creativity, and attacking threat kept Birmingham’s defense on edge throughout the encounter.
Birmingham pushed for an equalizer, but Leicester’s solid defensive setup denied them any clear chances. As the game wore on, Leicester looked the stronger side, and substitute Ricardo Pereira wrapped up the victory with a late strike to make it 2-0 at full-time.
For his outstanding performance, Fatawu was deservedly named Man of the Match, underlining his growing influence in Leicester’s promotion push. The 20-year-old’s back-to-back goals and consistent displays have made him one of the key figures in the team’s bright start to the season.
With momentum building, Leicester fans will be hopeful that Fatawu’s form continues to shine as they aim for a swift return to the Premier League.
