WHAT HAPPENED?
Marc Cucurella opened the scoring for the Blues in the 13th minute before Cole Palmer doubled the team's lead at the stroke of half-time. Disasi then accidentally put the ball into his own net and brought the Foxes back into the clash.
The Frenchman received the ball from Malo Gusto's throw-in and went towards his own goal as Patson Daka pressed him closely. The defender then attempted to pass the ball back Robert Sanchez in a hurry but accidentally curled it into his own net.
