Francis rues wasted chances

Paul Dickov's goal 13 minutes from time, settled the game, although the Foxes had keeper Ian Walker to thank for the sides still being level at that late stage.

"I was pleased with the way we played particularly in the first half when we created good opportunities and might have been two goals up," Francis told the club's official website.

"Our strikers had their chances but they were squandered, Paul Dickov's strike was a perfect execution and that is the difference between winning and losing."
