Queens Park Rangers 1-2 Leicester City: Harry Winks makes it 13 wins from 14 for Foxes
[ad_1]
Harry Winks scored his first goal since January 2022 as Championship leaders Leicester City left it late to beat 10-man Queens Park Rangers.
Midfielder Winks struck in the 80th minute as the Foxes won a ninth league game in a row, a seventh out of seven on the road and a 13th from 14 games this season.
Stephy Mavididi had put the visitors in front before Andre Dozzell equalized for QPR before half-time.
But Dozzell was sent off just before the hour mark for two bookings in a clash with Abdul Fatawu, and his team could not hang on without him, falling to a sixth straight defeat as Gareth Ainsworth’s struggling side remain 23rd.
