Jordan Ayew netted in the 94th minute to deny 10-man Town their first Premier League victory of the season as the Blues and Leicester drew 1-1 at Portman Road. Leif Davis gave Town the lead with a superb volley, his first top-flight goal on his 100th appearance for the club, on 55 but the Blues were reduced in number for the second successive game when Kalvin Phillips was harshly dismissed for a second bookable offence, seconds after Conor Chaplin had been denied a clear penalty. The 10 men held out until the fourth minute of injury time when Ayew levelled for the Foxes with Town unhappy that Morsy may have been fouled early in the build-up.  75
