Leicester held by OH Leuven in six-goal thriller

Leicester City got another solid pre-season workout when they drew 3-3 with Belgian side OH Leuven in a match which lasted 120 minutes on Saturday.

The Foxes fell 2-0 behind to a couple of early goals and that was how it stayed until Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall pulled one back with a low 20-yard strike early in the second half.

Patson Daka then equalised with a header from James Maddison’s free-kick delivery.

But in the pre-planned additional 30 minutes, Leuven retook the lead.

However, Jamie Vardy then equalised with his first goal of pre-season, and 3-3 was how it finished.

Hesitancy from the hosts on the ball in their own area. Tielemans nips in to knock the ball free and Vardy gobbles up the loose ball and neatly turns it home ⚽ #OhlLei
