"Samuel Iling-Junior's superb debut goal looked like it would be enough to send the Baggies second in the Championship table, until Phillips turned into his own net in the 93rd minute. Just 10 minutes into his West Brom bow, Iling-Junior embarked on a fine solo run, before neatly slotting past Leicester goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk. Harry Winks volleyed narrowly wide as the visitors sought a response, while Ricardo Pereira prodded just past the far post from Stephy Mavididi's cross."
"The Baggies squandered a glorious opportunity to seal victory in the 90th minute, when Josh Maja fired over from inside the six-yard box after Stolarczyk could only parry Jed Wallace's free-kick. It proved crucial as, in the third minute of stoppage time, Bobby De Cordova-Reid volleyed Abdul Fatawu's diagonal ball across the face of goal, with Phillips inadvertently diverting it beyond Josh Griffiths to ensure the spoils were shared."
Leicester City earned a 1-1 draw at The Hawthorns when Nathaniel Phillips inadvertently diverted Bobby De Cordova-Reid's stoppage-time volley into his own net in the 93rd minute. Samuel Iling-Junior had given West Brom the lead with a superb solo-run debut goal ten minutes into his bow. Leicester managed only one shot on target and registered an expected goals (xG) of 0.94, with Harry Winks and Ricardo Pereira coming close. West Brom missed a key chance when Josh Maja fired over from inside the six-yard box in the 90th minute. Leicester have collected five points from winning positions this season, more than any other Championship side, and West Brom’s run of six straight Hawthorns league defeats to Leicester ended.
