Leicester City came from behind to beat Norwich City 3-1 in the Championship on Easter Monday.

The Foxes have been at or near the top all season but had dropped out the top two recently - while Norwich pushed themselves into the top six to harbour real play-off ambitions. It was the Canaries who took the lead early on after a clever corner routine to the near post, but Leicester fought back with goals from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Stephy Mavididi and Jamie Vardy to claim the points and move back to the top of the table.

GOAL! LEICESTER 2-1 Norwich (Stephy Mavididi, 61 minutes)

Curled into the corner! Leicester go in front!

Norwich run into bother attempting to play out from the bat, Ben Gibson’s forward pass cut out. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall runs aground on the edge of the box but Mavididi does not, a lovely little bit of skill taking him past a defender and opening an angle to plant a low finish into the far corner to the left of Angus Gunn. As things stand, Leicester are moving back to the top of the table.
