Jordan Ayew was the hero again in stoppage time as his late equaliser rescued a point for Leicester City at Ipswich Town.
The Foxes looked on course to suffer a third defeat in a row before Ayew combined with Jamie Vardy to bury the ball home in the 94th minute and maintain a five-point gap between themselves and the bottom three.
Ayew’s late goal was his third of the season and his second stoppage-time goal following his 98th-minute winner against Southampton last month.
Jordan Ayew earning super-sub reputation after late heroics
Having come off the bench to save the day again, Ayew is already establishing himself as the designated super-sub.
The Ghanian has been in and out of the starting XI since his £5m move from Crystal Palace but his goals have earned the Foxes an extra three points.
Without them, Leicester would be on seven points, ahead of Ipswich on goal difference only.

Steve Cooper claims Jordan Ayew won’t be happy with new-found role
Scoring goals is always a great feeling but for Ayew, the more it happens, the more he will feel he deserves a space in the first team.
Stephy Mavididi and Abdul Fatwau have been preferred in recent weeks and Steve Cooper admitted that the 33-year-old won’t be satisfied with his role as an impact sub forever.
“He won’t want that to be his Leicester career,” said the Foxes boss. “It’s tough not starting him to be honest.
“We felt we needed the two wingers at the start of the game. We felt we could hurt Ipswich down the sides. They block off the middle and give you the sides and we wanted to take it, to get our wide players in places where they could make a difference. So we went with Abdul and Stephy.
“And then we feels Vards is playing well and is good for a goal at the moment. So it was tough to leave Jordan out, but at the same time brilliant to bring him on. The lads who came on did well and made a difference. The lads who stayed on and came off also contributed as well.”
