Patson Daka nets in Leicester City win to end 11 month goal drought 

Chipolopolo Boys striker Patson Daka scored the second goal as Leicester City beat Stoke City 2-1 in the English Championship. 

Daka’s goal was his first goal of the year ending his eleven month goal drought.  

Daka last scored in December 2024 in the Foxes 3-1 win over West Ham. 

Leicester City made it  back-to-back wins in the Sky Bet Championship on Saturday with a gutsy 2-1 success over Stoke City at King Power Stadium.

Stephy Mavididi and Patson Daka – each netting first goals of 25/26 – broke through the second tier’s tightest defence in the first half to put Leicester City on course for victory. 

Although Bae Jun-Ho halved the arrears for Mark Robins’ high-flying visitors, the Foxes showed real resolve to see out the win in pouring rain on Filbert Way.

The win takes Leicester City to 24 points after 16 games.
