Jannik Vestergaard's 90th-minute goal rescued a point for Leicester City as they came from behind to draw with fellow promotion-hopefuls Wrexham.

Lewis O'Brien's strike after the hour mark - his fourth goal of the season - looked to have earned the Red Dragons a fifth win in six matches across all competitions.

But Vestergaard netted in the final stages to ensure the Foxes avoided a fourth successive away league defeat.

Phil Parkinson's men sit ninth, two points adrift of the play-off places, while Leicester are 14th, five points off the top six spots.

Having lost 2-1 to Norwich City three days earlier, Wrexham were bidding to avoid losing back-to-back home league matches for the first time this season.

And following an uneventful start, they had the game's first chances as Matty James, against his former club, and O'Brien had efforts from the edge of the box.

Jordan Ayew tested Arthur Okonkwo from distance to register Leicester's first shot on target soon after, although there was precious little quality in attacking areas from either side in what were torrid conditions in north Wales.

The Foxes were dealt a blow before half-time as top scorer Jordan James was forced off through injury.

But after an even opening half, Wrexham had Okonkwo to thank for ensuring they went into the break level as he bravely smothered Bobby De Cordova-Reid's shot from close range.

Ollie Rathbone forced a smart save out of Jakub Stolarczyk after the restart, and Okonkwo reacted well to keep out Stephy Mavididi's strike as Leicester immediately broke following Wrexham's effort.

Wrexham's top scorer Kieffer Moore then drilled an effort narrowly wide from distance as the contest started to open up.

And the Red Dragons went ahead on 63 minutes as Stolarczyk could only parry Liberato Cacace's deflected cross into the path of O'Brien, who lashed home from close range.

Despite having more of the ball in spells, Marti Cifuentes' side struggled to maintain any real attacking momentum late on.

But they levelled in the final minute of regular time as Caleb Okoli's flick-on found Vestergaard who fired beyond Okonkwo.

Wrexham carved out one final opening to win the contest, but Moore's glancing header flew wide as the points were shared.

Parkinson made six changes to the side that started against Norwich at the weekend, and his side certainly grew into the contest after an uneventful and even first half.

With the wind behind them, the hosts deservedly led after a strong second-half performance as Leicester looked out of ideas until the final stages.

And while Wrexham were ultimately frustrated not to win, having been flat for long periods against Norwich, this showing will have proven far more encouraging for Parkinson.

From a Foxes perspective, no side have kept fewer clean sheets than Leicester in the Championship this season.

O'Brien's second-half goal ensured the Foxes have conceded in each of their past 22 league matches, with their most recent shutout coming exactly four months ago against leaders Coventry City.

In truth, both goalkeepers dealt with the testing conditions admirably, although once again, Leicester were undone by some lacklustre defending when they conceded.

And while Leicester found some much-needed quality late on to earn a point, there is no doubt that their defensive record must improve if they are to be genuine top-six challengers.

Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson:

"Really tough conditions to play in, I thought we managed the game brilliantly in the first half.

"The second half, it was exactly what we anticipated. Lewis [O'Brien] and Ollie [Rathbone] set the press for us, against a team we knew would look to build a lot from the back.

"I thought the game went how we envisaged it would go, we were really comfortable in the game.

"You take the moment at the end out of it, I'd be saying it was a really gritty, hard-working performance and a great response from the weekend, but the gloss is taken off it because we haven't dealt with a ball into the box."

Leicester City boss Marti Cifuentes:

"It's a game of two halves. The conditions on the pitch and in the stadium influenced the development of the game.

"First half were able to play quite high up the pitch, we had a couple of good chances that we should have taken.

"Then we knew because of the conditions it could change the game a lot in the second half because we know that Wrexham have a good dynamic, they have quite a direct style so we knew in the windy conditions they would try to put pressure."
