FACUNDO BUONANOTTE cut Nottingham Forest down to size late on as Leicester held their Champions League chasing rivals to a draw.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side knew they had the chance to take a huge step towards playing in Europe’s elite competition after Chelsea lost at Newcastle earlier today.
But if they thought it would be a cruise against already relegated Leicester then Conor Coady’s headed opener after 16 minutes was a real wake-up call.
Morgan Gibbs-White heard the call loud and clear as he netted just nine minutes later.
And after the break, Gibbs-White turned provider as Chris Wood headed Forest into the lead with his 20th league goal of the season.
However, Leicester still had more to give in this game and made sure Forest knew about it.
Buonanotte danced through the usually strong defence before rifling home the equaliser with nine minutes of regulation time remaining.
