Nigel Pearson sets Leicester tough target

Leicester City 0, Hull City 0:

The Foxes were held to a 0-0 draw by visiting Hull despite enjoying a numerical advantage for the last 19 minutes following Tom Huddlestone’s sending off, but could not find a cutting edge in attack. “We’ve got 10 games left, six at home and we probably need to win five. Today’s game shows how tough it can be,” said Pearson.

Hull manager Steve Bruce had no qualms about Huddlestone’s red card, after the midfielder was booked in each half, but he was indignant about two decisions that immediately preceded the midfielder’s dismissal.
