The striker’s deflected goal earned Leicester the victory after Youri Tielemans had earlier missed a penalty.
The League Two side can still be proud of their efforts even if Flynn was unable to add another upset to the list. His side – with only two league defeats since September – went at Leicester with relish and Iversen turned Tom Knowles’ early low effort away. Walsall won the physical battles, committing to the challenges Leicester were clearly not used to in the top flight, and had every reason to be happy with their first-half display.
That there was no zip from the Foxes owed much to Walsall’s refusal to give them an inch but the Saddlers gifted the visitors a golden chance two minutes after the restart.
