Winger’s 65-yard lob helps Foxes to 3-1 win
Coventry stay top; Boro tighten grip on second
Abdul Fatawu scored from inside his own half as Leicester cruised to a 3-1 win against Ipswich at the King Power Stadium. Fatawu’s remarkable lob from about 65 yards doubled Leicester’s lead two minutes before half-time, after Bobby De Cordova-Reid lashed home from distance on eight minutes.
Leicester sealed the points on 52 minutes when Jordan Ayew converted Ricardo Pereira’s cutback before substitute Jens Cajuste scored for the visitors after an error from goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk.
Coventry got back to winning ways as a 1-0 victory against Bristol City kept them five points clear at the top of the table, Ephron Mason-Clark scoring the only goal in the second half. It was Coventry’s seventh successive home victory.
