VIDEO: Schmeichel’s son joins goalscoring goalkeepers club
Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, son of Man United legend Peter, was the unlikely hero as he earned his team a Sky Bet Championship point against Yeovil.
Schmeichel headed a Danny Drinkwater cross against the underside of the bar and the ball appeared to bounce down just over the line in the first minute of stoppage time – before Chris Wood made sure.
Wood was credited with the goal – but Schmeichel is likely to join his father in the goalscoring goalkeepers’ club courtesy of the dubious goals panel.
City piled on the pressure in the last few minutes and snatched a point in dramatic circumstances in stoppage time.
It denied relegation strugglers Yeovil victory over the leaders after they had been given a 22nd-minute lead with a free-kick from Joe Ralls.
