A Stunning Performance, Says Beaglehole

- Leicester City's Development Squad defeated Swansea City 3-0 in Landore on Monday night
- The result leaves City's youngsters second in Premier League 2 Division 1
- Admiral Muskwe's penalty and a brace from trialist Ali Reghba sealed victory for the visitors
- Steve Beaglehole was delighted with the side's attacking endeavour in South Wales

The Club’s Under-23s sit second in Division 1 following their eighth league success of the season – a fifth in a row in all competitions over the festive and New Year period.

Admiral Muskwe struck from the penalty spot for the Foxes while trialist Ali Reghba notched a brace at Swansea’s training ground to leave the visitors just one point adrift of the summit.

Speaking to LCFC TV at full-time, Beaglehole, the Club’s Senior Professional Development Phase Coach, said: “I thought it was a stunning performance.

“Sometimes I go over the top when they’ve not played well and probably sometimes I do when they have played well, but tonight… it was a stunning performance.

“They were excellent, every one of them, I’m really proud of them. We talked about one of the key objectives before the game and I asked ‘can we keep a clean sheet?’

“We said how important the start is. They had an experienced side out, it’s the strongest side they’ve put out against us since I’ve been involved.

“I think six players played with league experience, Championship experience, and I think one player has played in the Premier League so they were a strong side with three overage players.

“We said – certainly in the first 15 minutes - we’ve got to make sure that we manage the game right and we keep a clean sheet in those first 15 minutes.

“We were very, very comfortable in the first half, I can’t remember Viktor [Johansson] having a save to make and we were absolutely camping in their half, it was a great attacking display.”
