But more importantly for the Italian, it is a win that arrests an alarming slump of form that saw Leicester win only once in the league in November.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/14\/78502091-12817639-image-a-45_1701528554954.jpg\" height=\"473\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Harry Winks grabbed a last minute winner for Leicester to extend their lead at the top of the Championship<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/14\/78502103-12817639-image-a-47_1701528584187.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The away side capitalised on West Brom&#8217;s attempts to grab a late winner themselves and bounced on the counter attack<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/14\/78502077-12817639-image-a-48_1701528594085.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Josh Maja thought he had at least earned the Baggies a point after coming on as a substitute<\/p>\n<p>West Brom went toe-to-toe with the leaders from the off and started brightly, though they were helped by some wayward distribution from Foxes goalkeeper Mads Hermansen.<\/p>\n<p>The Dane gifted away possession and was grateful to see Kipre\u2019s left-footed effort from the resulting corner strike the foot of the post.<\/p>\n<p>Hermansen misfired again moments later \u2013 doing little to help turn the tide in his team\u2019s favour \u2013 and allowed the bright Brandon Thomas-Asante a shot on goal, which the keeper managed to gather.<\/p>\n<p>But there is always a sense that when this Leicester side finds a way to turn it on in attack then no defence in the division is capable of keeping them out.<\/p>\n<p>Iheanacho should have put the visitors ahead with the clearest chance of the half after Semi Ajayi completely misread but the Nigerian dragged his shot horribly wide.<\/p>\n<p>The game eventually began to open up as the second half progressed and you sensed that favoured Leicester, who brought on the fresh legs of Abdul Fatawu out wide.
