Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans had no complaints about the performance as they were beaten 1-0 by Manchester City.
A wonder strike from Vincent Kompany saw Manchester City finally break down a stubborn Foxes defence with 20 minutes remaining.
Though the home side largely dominated, the Foxes did have chances to spoil City’s title run, with Kelechi Iheancho missing a guilt-edged chance late on against his former club.
The loss means that Leicester are out of the running for a seventh place finish and potential tilt at Europe, with one game left against Chelsea.

However, Tielemans admits that despite the fact City deserved to win the game, Leicester solid and disciplined. “I think especially in the first half we played [well] at times, most of the time we played really good,” the expressive Belgium international told LCFC TV at full-time. “We were compact defensively and offensively we tried to play our game to make them run. That’s what they did with us [in the] second half which is why they scored a beautiful goal.
“I think they came back really strong from the dressing room and [in the] second half they were the better team and I think they deserved the win when you see the whole game.”
