Ruud van Nistelrooy made a winning start for Leicester City in the English Premier League on Tuesday. In the match at the King Power Stadium, Leicester defeated West Ham 3-1, who were in a bad form.

Leicester took the lead in the second minute with Jamie Vardy's goal. Then Bilal El Klanos and Victor Christensen scored. At the end of the game, Nicklas Fulkrub scored a consolation goal for West Ham. Despite the

win, Leicester are still 15th on 13 points and just four points clear of the relegation zone. Defeated West Ham are just ahead of him in 14th place and have 15 points.

The coach of West Ham, Julen Lapetegui, who has won only three of the last 12 games in the league, is under pressure. On the other hand, Nistelroy got a big relief. He said, "In the position we are in, three points are very important."
