Junior Firpo’s first Leeds goal, thank to a glorious assist from Patrick Bamford, and Luis Sinisterra’s strike two minutes later, ensured the Elland Road club avoided an upset despite Leslie Adekoya’s late consolation.

But Leicester did struggle against lower league opposition and needed Kelechi Iheanacho‘s long-range goal, his SEVENTEETH in the FA Cup, to secure their passage.

The Nigerian’s deflected effort came after Youri Tielemans missed a penalty after striking the inside of the post.
