U18s Report: Brighton 1 Leicester City 1

- Leicester City Under-18s pick up a valuable 1-1 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion

- Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's second half penalty levelled Owen Moore's opener for the hosts

- Trevor Peake's young Foxes travel to Reading in the U18s Premier League next weekend

Owen Moore’s opener in the 45th minute for the hosts was levelled by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s second half penalty to earn a share of the spoils for Trevor Peake’s young Foxes. 

Brighton started well and could have broken the deadlock early on when an Archie Davies header was glanced inches wide following a dangerous Max Sanders cross. 

A corner on the stroke of half time proved to be City’s Achilles heel with Moore latching onto an in-swinging cross to give the Seagulls a slender advantage going into the break. 

Leicester emerged after the interval with their tails up, however, and levelled the arrears when Rian O’Sullivan was adjudged to have fouled Thakgalo-Khanya Leshabela in the area. 

Dewsbury-Hall duly converted from 12 yards to give Peake’s side a valuable point on the South Coast ahead of the trip to face Reading on Saturday 3 December.
