West Ham Defeats Leicester 2-0, Pushing Foxes Closer to Relegation

West Ham secured a 2-0 victory over Leicester City at the London Stadium, further deepening Leicester's relegation troubles. Tomas Soucek opened the scoring on his 30th birthday, followed by an own goal from Leicester's Jannik Vestergaard just before halftime. This win marks West Ham's second consecutive victory under manager Graham Potter, lifting them to 15th place in the Premier League standings. Meanwhile, Leicester's defeat extended their poor run to 11 losses in 12 matches, leaving them firmly in the relegation zone at 19th place, five points adrift of safety.
