Martin Waghorn scores his first goal of the season to give Leicester a 1-0 half-time lead over Leeds United at Elland Road.

Martin Waghorn's first goal in over a year has given Leicester City a 1-0 half-time advantage against Leeds United at Elland Road.

The former Sunderland striker has been sidelined for nearly 12 months with an injury but netted on his return to the side this afternoon.

He capitalised on a poor defensive header from Danny Pugh to slot past Andy Lonergan in the Leeds goal.

The Foxes could have gone ahead earlier in proceedings, but Lonergan saved well from both Wes Morgan and Ben Marshall.

Leeds, who will set an unwanted record of eleven home defeats in a season with a loss today, barely threatened the visitors goal with Robert Snodgrass's free-kick the closest they game to an equaliser.
