Stunning goals give Leicester extra-time win over Derby - Football


LONDON (Reuters) - Leicester City scored two stunning goals in extra time through Wilfred Ndidi and Demarai Gray to reach the FA Cup fifth round with a 3-1 win over second tier Derby County in a replay on Wednesday. The victory came as a minor relief for champions Leicester who are one point above the Premier League relegation zone after failing to win a league game this year. Ndidi, a January signing from Racing Genk, put Leicester 2-1 ahead with a bullet finish and Gray slalomed through the Derby defence to rubber-stamp Leicester's progress. Leicester, who along with Derby fielded a largely second-string side, visit third-tier Millwall in the last 16 on Feb. 18. The lead lasted 15 minutes, Derby drawing level as Camara's free kick took a huge deflection off Ben Chilwell in the wall and skidded past Leicester keeper Ron-Robert Zieler.
