Randers FC 1 – 3 Leicester

Leicester eased into the last-16 of the Europa Conference League 7-2 on aggregate after a 3-1 second-leg win away at Randers.

Leading 4-1 from the first leg, Harvey Barnes ensured there would be no upset in the Danish snow when he slotted Leicester into a second-minute lead, but instead of kicking on, the Foxes made hard work of securing a morale-boosting win.

Randers passed up a host of gilt-edged chances while Kasper Schmeichel produced two stunning saves before Leicester’s quality finally came to the fore.

James Maddison whipped a superb free-kick into the top corner (70), before picking out the other corner moments later with a fine 20-yard drive (74), and there were smiles all around the Randers Stadion when Stephen Odey grabbed a late consolation for the hosts after a horrific bobble bewildered Schmeichel.

Leicester await their fate in Friday’s last-16 draw, where Roma, Feyenoord and Rennes are among the sides they could draw.
