Patson Daka opened the scoring in the fourth minute with a right-footed strike from outside the box, as Leicester City drew 2-2 with Preston North End. The forward later left the field injured.
The Foxes forward found a pocket in front of the defence and drove from range to beat Daniel Iversen (4.). The clean hit set the tone for his direct, shoot-on-sight approach.
He then combined neatly on the right, sliding Divine Mukasa in for a low effort that Iversen saved (35.). Those runs into inside channels kept Preston's back line turning.
Late on, he struck again from outside the box, rifling into the roof of the net to restore parity (81.). It was a repeat of the early pattern: quick set, minimal backlift, maximum power.
He finished with four attempts, three on target, and three key passes, underlining how he carried the Foxes attack. He was withdrawn with a knock (88.).
The Foxes stay 22nd in the Championship and visit Sheffield Wednesday next. Preston host Queens Park Rangers.
