In the keenly contested affair, Timo Werner headed Cesar Azpilicueta’s corner kick past goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel in the 34th minute, but the effort was cancelled as VAR adjudged the German star handled the ball as he guided it into the net. Antonio Rudiger put the hosts ahead two minutes into the second half, when Ben Chilwell’s well-taken corner was met by the thigh of the 28-year-old, who was in the right place at the right time to beat goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel. Not willing to accept defeat, Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers made an attacking substitution that saw Iheanacho replace James Maddison on the hour mark.
