“Leicester City’s SHOCKING Revival of a LOST Art Will Leave You Speechless – Chants Reveal JAW-DROPPING Transfer Secrets!”

Leicester City responded impressively to adversity as they ended a five-match winless run with victory over Swansea City.

The turning point came 20 minutes from time when Ethan Galbraith appeared to appeal for a corner after Wout Faes’ challenge, only for the referee to award a controversial penalty.

Swansea equalised, but instead of crumbling, Leicester rallied, showing great composure and determination to retake control and secure the win.

Manager Marti Cifuentes praised his players’ mentality, highlighting how they reacted positively to the setback.

“What I value most is the reaction,” he said. “After the penalty, the team showed great mental strength. We were very strong in the final 20 minutes.”

His side not only reclaimed the lead through Abdul Fatawu’s stunning strike but continued pushing forward rather than settling for a narrow advantage.

Swansea were unable to mount another attack until added time, as Leicester pressed relentlessly for more goals — a notable improvement from their complacency in the midweek draw against Wrexham.

Cifuentes’ tactical tweaks also played a key role. He retained the same setup as the Wrexham match, with Ricardo Pereira returning at right-back.

The Portuguese defender now sits deeper in midfield rather than pushing forward, allowing Jordan James greater attacking freedom.

The wingers remained wide, and Patson Daka led the line, staying on the shoulder of the last defender.

The system gave Leicester more control in midfield, better structure in attack, and reduced vulnerability to counter-attacks.

Daka’s movement stretched Swansea’s backline, while Leicester’s pressing was more coordinated.

Daka’s pace also gave the team an outlet when defending a lead, with Leicester attempting clipped passes over the top for him to chase.

One such move, initiated by Jannik Vestergaard, drew visible applause from Cifuentes — a clear sign that this approach could remain after the international break.

Leicester also continue to revive a fading art in football: long-range shooting. Fatawu and James both scored brilliant goals from outside the box, adding to the club’s growing highlight reel of spectacular strikes.

While Cifuentes admitted such shots cannot be the only weapon in their arsenal, he encourages them as part of Leicester’s attacking philosophy, arguing they create pressure and opportunities from set-pieces.

Few players in the league can match Fatawu’s accuracy and power from distance, and Leicester’s confidence in shooting early keeps opponents guessing.

James, meanwhile, is quickly becoming a fan favourite. The 21-year-old loanee has impressed with his energy, composure, and attacking threat, filling the box-to-box role vacated by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

Supporters chanted his name at full-time, and with an option to buy in his contract, Leicester look likely to pursue a permanent deal next summer.

With the win, Leicester head into the international break in high spirits. They sit third in the Championship, just two points off second, and boast the second-longest unbeaten run in the league.

There is still room for improvement in chance creation and game control, but the signs under Cifuentes are overwhelmingly positive — Leicester appear to be back on the right path.
