Leicester City 2-1 Wolves: Foxes move out of bottom three with crucial win

Leicester boosted their Premier League survival chances after fighting back to beat Wolves in Dean Smith's first home game in charge.

Timothy Castagne's goal 15 minutes from time secured the three points for the Foxes and lifts them out of the relegation zone on goal difference.

Wolves had gone in front after 13 minutes when Youri Tielemens was caught in possession inside his own half, allowing Matheus Cunha to drive forward and finish from the edge of the box.

The goal shook Leicester, who had started brightly, but they were offered a way back into the game when Jamie Vardy went around Jose Sa and was brought down by the Wolves goalkeeper.
