Leicester City moved within three points of Division 1 leaders Liverpool with a 2-0 win over Derby County at Pride Park.

Josh Knight, pictured above, put Leicester ahead midway through the first half at Pride Park.

The lead was doubled by Lamine Sherif shortly after the break, but the 18-year-old midfielder then was sent off late on after two yellow cards.

The win lifted Leicester into second above Everton, who played Manchester United on Monday. Derby stay sixth.
