Substitute Danny Welbeck’s late goal rescued a point for Brighton as they drew 1-1 with Leicester at the King Power Stadium.
After an uneventful first half, the Foxes took the lead in the 46th minute when Patson Daka netted his third Premier League goal in as many games.
But Welbeck salvaged a point for Graham Potter’s side in the 82nd minute with an authoritative header from Neal Maupay’s cross.
The draw maintains the Seagulls’ four point advantage over Leicester in the Premier League table.
