Brighton 1-1 Leicester City: Report, Ratings and Reaction as Jamie Vardy Saves the Foxes

Leicester City had Jamie Vardy to thank as they came from behind to earn a draw against Brighton, despite being down to ten men for the majority of the game.

Brighton took the lead through their veteran star striker Glenn Murray when he glanced home from an Anthony Knockaert corner inside 15 minutes.

The game then looked to have turned completely in the Seagull's favour when Leicesters England international James Maddison was sent off. The young midfielder showed his lack of experience when receiving a second yellow card for simulation just two minutes after being booked for a cynical foul on Knockaert.
