Change of mindset gave us victory over Brighton, says Rodgers

Leicester City boss, Brendan Rodgers, has attributed their victory over Brighton on Saturday to the players’ change of mindset.

Rodgers told BBC Sport: “Brighton were better than us in the first half – we were too slow and not aggressive enough. They deservedly went in front.

“They were excellent; they are a good side. You can see why they beat top teams.

“We had to look at things at half-time. We were outstanding in the second half. The players were brilliant.

“It was a change of mindset; we needed to be more aggressive. Once we did that we had more energy on the ball.”
