Wilfred Ndidi's freakish late goal meant Leicester saved themselves from an excruciating defeat to 10-man West Ham, but whether it will be enough to alter the course of Claude Puel's tenure remains uncertain.
For an hour Puel was staring at a result that would have left his position under intense scrutiny but in the final minute of normal time Ndidi tried his luck from distance, the ball hit the back leg of Fabian Balbuena, and spun in an almost impossible arc into the top corner.
Puel's reaction was understated to say the least, a slow clap of acknowledgement absent of any evident emotion.
