It was the late, late show at the King Power Stadium as Abdul Fatawu’s stunning 94th minute goal earned the Foxes all three points, having been second-best for the majority of the game. 

A bright opening saw the hosts take the lead through Jordan Ayew inside 20 minutes as he poked home after a well-worked move to give Leicester the advantage.

West Brom were level before the break as a counter attack left the Foxes trailing and Karlan Grant swept home the equaliser.

That inspired the visitors and they controlled proceedings for the remainder of the match, with Foxes goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk making a number of crucial saves that left Fatawu able to grab the points with a stunning volley to send a sparse crowd home with all three points.
