Hereford 1-3 Leicester

League One leaders Leicester moved closer to promotion with victory at relegation-haunted Hereford.

Hereford surprisingly went in front when Steve Guinan drilled in a penalty after Jennison Myrie-Williams had been brought down by Joe Mattock.

Matt Oakley's free-kick levelled matters before Lloyd Dyer powered in a shot after Richard Jackson had headed a shot from Steve Howard against the bar.

Howard secured the three points when he tapped in from close range.


Hereford striker Steve Guinan told BBC Hereford and Worcester:

"It's been a poor season for us all really as I'm top-scorer with 13 goals, and the next is Fabien [Brandy] on four.

"That tells a story in itself as we haven't scored enough goals and we've conceded too many.

"That's what happens in a relegation season and it hasn't been good enough all over the park I'm afraid."
