Leicester captain Wes Morgan tips his side to bounce back
Tuesday 16 February 2016 10:39, UK
Wes Morgan says Leicester City will shake off their injury time defeat to Arsenal and get their Premier League title bid back on track.
Danny Welbeck's last-gasp winner at the Emirates on Sunday condemned 10-man Leicester to just their third league defeat of the season, cutting the Foxes' lead at the top of the table to two points.
Tottenham and Arsenal are separated only by goal difference as they chase Leicester, but skipper Morgan insists he and his team-mates will bounce back quickly.
"It's a disappointing result. To concede with the last kick of the game like that and to come away with nothing is hard to take," the defender told the club's website.
"We're the type of team to fight for each other, have each other's backs and do what's necessary to try to help each other out.
"We'll dust ourselves off and bounce back against Norwich in our next game."
Manager Claudio Ranieri has given the players a week off to recharge their batteries before their next game against Alex Neil's side on February 27.
"We'll have a little rest and take our minds off the game," Morgan added.
"It's been a tough last three games so we'll have some time off from football, and come back with a fresh mind raring to go. We'll be back on it."
