Highlights of the Sky Bet League One match between Leicester City and Peterborough United.

Peterborough brushed aside Leicester 3-1 in Robbie Savage’s first league game in charge to heap more pressure on Foxes boss Russell Martin.

Owura Edwards, Harry Leonard and Warren O'Hora's own goal gave Posh a 3-0 half-time lead before Emil Riis pulled one back.

Posh were ahead after just 12 minutes when Edwards cut in from the left, eased past Olabade Aluko and fired into the far corner.

Leonard slotted home a second in the 36th minute, teed up by Bolu Shofowoke who had easily brushed off Luke Thomas' challenge, and a minute before half-time O'Hora deflected Ethan Williams' shot into his own net.

Martin responded with three half-time changes, and Leicester finally found the net after 68 minutes with their 20th attempt on goal when substitute Wes Burns squared for Riis to slide a finish into an empty net.

Peterborough goalkeeper Alex Bass' brilliant reaction stop denied Kamari Doyle before Danny Ormerod went close to a late fourth as the Foxes left the pitch to more boos after a third league home defeat of the campaign.
