Foxes in thriller

17 July 2010 13:01
Leicester beat NK Aluminij 5-2 in an action-packed finale to their pre-season tour of Slovenia. The Foxes fell behind against the run of play after 16 minutes but DJ Campbell immediately restored parity. Steve Howard put Paulo Sousa`s side ahead with a superb 25-yard strike soon afterwards and the burly striker grabbed his second goal of the game from close range just after the half-hour mark when Richie Wellens` shot was parried into his path. Campbell struck the crossbar following a mazy run before the hosts got back in the game and made it 3-2 heading into the break. Paul Gallacher set-up fellow half-time substitute Matty Fryatt to score soon after the restart and trialist Leon Crncic completed the scoring by heading home Gallacher`s right-wing cross.
