Norwich moved to within four points of an unlikely escape from the Premier League relegation zone as Jamal Lewis' fine goal gave them a precious win against Leicester.
The Canaries were in real danger of being cut adrift heading into the final 10 games of the season but can now retain hope of overhauling the struggling sides above them after a much-needed win.
Daniel Farke's side had not scored from open play since New Year's Day but managed to hang on after Lewis smashed in for a fifth win of the season.
For the second week in a row, Leicester will feel hard done by as they saw Kelechi Iheanacho’s excellent 20-yarder ruled out by VAR for handball.
Brendan Rodgers saw his side have plenty of pressure without the injured Jamie Vardy but the Foxes have now gone five games without a win in all competitions.
Leicester have looked locked in for a European place for months now and will remain in third place no matter what happens over the Premier League weekend – but they will now be starting to worry after a damaging slump in form.
At the other end of the table, survival was starting to look improbable but this win could prove absolutely vital come the end of the campaign. (BBC)
