Super-sub Jesus seals Man City win at Leicester

Gabriel Jesus scored a late winner as Manchester City edged Leicester to a 1-0 win in the Premier League on Saturday.

Jesus found some space on the right-hand side of the 18-yard box before dispatching the ball past Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel. The goal was later confirmed by VAR after it was checked for offside.

Schmeichel had earlier saved striker Sergio Aguero's penalty on 62 minutes after VAR ruled for a handball on Dennis Praet, who blocked Ilkay Gundogan's shot with a raised elbow.

Jamie Vardy went close early in the contest, getting in behind City's back line before hitting the post during the ensuing one-on-one.

Schmeichel kept the match goalless in the first half with two superb saves from midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and Aguero.

Leicester maintained steady pressure on City throughout the match, easily able to have snatched the three points had they not squandered a succession of missed chances.

City remain second, moving to seven points ahead of Saturday's opponents Leicester, cutting Liverpool's lead at the top of the Premier League to 19 points.
