Burnley steal point at Leicester

Leicester - Substitute Ross Wallace curled in a 20-yard free kick in injury time for Burnley to leave Leicester with a 2-2 draw in the English Premier League on Saturday.

Leicester went ahead twice in the first half through Riyad Mahrez and Jeff Schlupp, who were brought in after the 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace last week.

But Burnley answered each time. Burnley remained winless at the bottom of the standings, but it ended a goal drought that lasted 47 days, and almost 11 hours of game action.

Five minutes into injury time, Burnley's Lukas Jutkiewicz was fouled by Matty James, and Wallace stepped up to fire into the top corner.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
