Matchday With The Manager – Taking On Brighton & Getting Back Up

The Foxes are back in top-flight action four days after the 3-2 defeat by Tottenham Hotspur on Filbert Way. Leading deep into stoppage time, a scarcely believable brace from Steven Bergwijn ripped victory away from Leicester and sent all three points to north London.

It was a cruel end to a game which City had fought so hard in. Despite riding out several defensively alarming moments, as Spurs drove forward in waves, Leicester had withstood much of that pressure and built an advantage which they held until the very last seconds.
