Leicester pulled a goal back before the break in spectacular fashion, Shinji Okazaki volleying in Marc Albrighton’s cross. Under Leicester pressure Man City held on for a win that gives them 72 points, two clear of Liverpool, who travel to West Ham on Sunday. The visitors also challenged the referee's decision to award City's opening goal -- and they might have had a point.
