MADRID, Jan. 8 (EUROPE PRESS) –
Leicester had to settle for a draw (1-1) this Wednesday against Aston Villa in the first leg of their League Cup semifinal, the Carabao Cup, where they started below at King Power Stadium against a serious Villa despite the differences in Premier.
The 'foxes', second in the English league standings, were better starting and had dangerous arrivals. However, about half an hour, against it, came the center of El-Ghazi and the shot of Guilbert on the second stick for 0-1.
Aston Villa, fourth by the tail in the Premier, grew even or took advantage of the blow it took to assimilate the Leicester. It was not until the discount when the local team returned to look for goal and in the second half it returned to have control.
It was based on insisting how Brendan Rodgers' team found the way and Douglas Luiz's lack of pressure. A tie in the rain very even, with the villains looking to protect the result to also give the tie for good. On January 28 they will play the second leg with the final in play.
