Watch Leicester Vs Brighton highlights as the Foxes produced an incredible comeback to snatch a late draw against Brighton in the Premier League on Sunday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leicester City<\/a> trailed by two goals with less than five minutes of normal time remaining, but scored twice in the dying minutes to rescue an unlikely point.<\/p>\n

Brighton<\/a> looked in full control after Tariq Lamptey and Yankuba Minteh had put them two up with ten minutes to play.<\/p>\n

But skipper Jamie Vardy<\/a> pulled one back in the 86th minute, before Bobby De Cordova-Reid came off the bench to grab a stoppage-time equaliser and send the home fans wild.<\/p>\n

The draw maintains new Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy’s unbeaten start at the King Power Stadium.<\/p>\n

Things started poorly for the hosts, though. Lamptey’s curling finish put Fabian Hurzeler’s visiting Seagulls ahead after 37 minutes.<\/p>\n

Minteh then doubled their advantage in the 79th minute, with the substitute firing home Brighton’s second after a superb run.<\/p>\n

But Leicester never know when they’re beaten. Veteran and club legend Vardy met James Justin’s cross to slot past Bart Verbruggen and give the hosts hope.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old then turned provider as he delivered a perfect pass for De Cordova-Reid, who tapped home an equaliser in added time to bring Leicester level and the stadium into delirium.<\/p>\n

Brighton Boss Rues Missed Chances<\/h2>\n

Speaking after the game, Brighton manager Fabain Hurzeler said his side should have put the game to bed earlier on.<\/p>\n

He told BBC Match of the Day<\/em>:\u00a0“How can you explain that? It\u2019s just football sometimes. We have to learn from it because we have experienced it this season.<\/p>\n

“We need to be more mature and finish off the games. You can\u2019t explain it sometimes, but we can also see it as an opportunity to show character.<\/p>\n

“We had enough chances to lead more – we have to be really careful talking about the performance. We have to trust the process and we will reflect this and look at the positives. A big part is game management. We have to improve.<\/p>\n

“No excuse. It\u2019s our fault and we have to take responsibility. I\u2019m not a guy who will find excuses.”<\/p>\n
