Young Foxes Stung By Hornets
Leicester City's under 18 side went down 1-0 to Watford at the Belvoir Drive training ground on Saturday.
The Foxes went into the game having notched up five wins from their opening seven encounters of the campaign.
Watford fielded their strongest possible side for the contest - with a number of their players coming from the Hornets first team squad.
The visitors went ahead in the first period, but despite an improved performance from the Foxes in the second half they would be left with nothing to show for their efforts.
Speaking after the game, Academy director Jon Rudkin said: "Watford came with a game plan. They fielded their full allotment of overage players and some of them even had first team experience. We knew that they would be physical before the contest and we prepared for it accordingly.
"We decided to field no overage players and even had two schoolboys in our side. We knew it was always going to be difficult for the boys but they will have learnt a lot from the game."
City: Cisak, Muggleton, Mattocks, Wykes, Lycett, Norval, Gradel (Porter), King, McKay (Rochester), Chambers, Muggleton.
