Leicester triumph and rivals falter…
Delighted Leicester boss Enzo Maresca paid tribute to his side’s character after they regained control of the race for automatic promotion.
Stephy Mavididi’s 87th-minute header earned the Foxes – whose financial affairs have come under scrutiny by both the Premier League and EFL – a 2-1 win against struggling Birmingham and saw them return to the top of the table.
Meanwhile, rivals Ipswich and Leeds both lost. The Tractor Boys went down 1-0 in their derby at Norwich, while Leeds slumped 2-1 at Coventry.
“I just told the players I’m very happy, especially for the way we came through,” said Maresca.
