Leicester City set an unwanted Premier League record as their season went from bad to worse following defeat to Manchester United.
The Foxes, who were dispatched 3-0 at the King Power Stadium on Sunday, now find themselves nine points from safety with the same number of matches remaining.
Goals from Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes secured a 3-0 victory for the Red Devils.
The defeat means Leicester have now won just one of their last 14 league matches, losing 12 of them.
The sole victory came away to Tottenham back in January, and they have lost seven home league matches in a row without scoring since.
And Ruud van Nistelrooy‘s side are now in fact the first in English top-flight history to manage that unwanted feat.
Those seven home losses have produced a combined aggregate score of 18-0.
The goalless run dates back to a 2-2 draw with Brighton at the King Power Stadium in December.
Bobby DeCordova-Reid’s late equaliser against the Seagulls remains the club’s last home Premier League strike.
The Foxes have since been beaten to nil on home soil by Wolves, Manchester City, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Arsenal and Brentford.
It follows an impressive start to the season in front of their own supporters.
Leicester found the net in each of their opening eight home league fixtures following promotion back to the Premier League.
It is not just at home that Leicester have failed to score in recent weeks, though.
Since their four-goal draw with Brighton three months ago, their only two league goals came in the 2-1 win at Spurs.
Speaking after their seventh straight home defeat, Van Nistelrooy said: “In the end, the score says it all. In between boxes there was not much between us, it was the same.
“I think the efficiency in finishing chances and defending key moments was the difference today.
“I also thought we were unlucky not to score. We had a few opportunities where we could have scored; should have scored, but the momentum that we’re in now, it’s not falling our way.”
He continued: “The players are trying, they are doing everything that they can and investing in the training sessions, working hard, but results are not there and that’s hard week in, week out.
“We’re in a similar situation to Ipswich and Southampton. The three promoted sides don’t have a lot of results.
“We have to keep getting up and believing in our work and try our best every game.
“The gap is big, it’s nine points, we know that, and the players were very disappointed in the dressing room, but we can’t give up.”
Van Nistelrooy will be hoping to snap the goalless streak following the international break to salvage his side’s slim survival hopes.
They are next at home against Newcastle on April 7 before visits from Liverpool and Southampton.
Leicester’s final home match of the season comes against fellow strugglers Ipswich on May 18.
