First the good news for Leicester fans: Stephy Mavididi’s goal in the first half meant that Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side avoided matching Crystal Palace’s record of failing to score in nine straight Premier League defeats as they twice came from behind against Brighton to pick up their first point since the end of January.
Unfortunately for the Dutchman and his beleaguered players, it has surely only delayed the inevitable for another week. Two more wins for Wolves will confirm Leicester’s return to the Championship after a season to forget. But having twice fallen behind to penalties from João Pedro, it was the visiting supporters who came away smiling for a change as Caleb Okoli’s thumping header denied Brighton the victory they badly needed.
