First goal for Leicester City in the Champions League
English midfielder Marc Albrighton scored the 1-0 in the match between Leicester City and Brujas from Belgium in the first matchday of Group G in the Champions League. The goal represents the first goal ever for 'The Foxes' in the European tournament.
In the ninth minute of the match between Leicester City and Brujas, a throw-in from the right side initiated the goal play. The ball made its way to the goalkeeper's area. The goalkeeper jumped to reach the ball.
The goalkeeper tried to catch the ball, but in a poor coordination with Vanaken, the midfielder headed the ball allowing Albrighton to be in a scoring position. The Leicester City player shot into an empty net and scored the first goal in the history of 'The Foxes' in the Champions League.
