Leicester missed the chance to go top of the table as they dug deep to come from behind twice to draw with Walsall.

Alex Nicholls put Walsall ahead, bundling in the ball after Leicester's defence made a hash of a clearance.

City steadied themselves when Andy King headed in an equaliser at the far post from Max Gradel's corner.

Michael Ricketts put Walsall back in front, heading in after the break but Leicester levelled it when Lloyd Dyer's corner was met by Aleksander Tunchev.
