Championship: Blackburn 1-2 Leicester - Vardy restores Foxes' lead

Well this is interesting, Blackburn stopper Aynsley Pears has been carried off, unable to put any weight on his right foot.

Leo Wahlstedt replaces him in the sticks. There’s been a lot of debate with Rovers fans on whether this change should have been made before the game even started.

Pears has come under pressure with a couple of errors as the Lancashire side have started slowly this season.

Wahlstedt has had two appearances so far, both in the EFL Cup, including at home to Cardiff last time out in a 5-2 victory.

Jon Dahl Tomasson signed the Swede from second division Norwegian side Odds Ballklubb - early days but he doesn’t seem that eccentric.
