Foxes plunge closer to League One with latest defeat Millwall go second; Southampton win maintains surge Ibane Bowat’s second-half goal was enough to give Portsmouth a crucial 1-0 win at home to their relegation rivals Leicester as the Foxes plunged a huge step closer to League One. Bowat’s scruffy 63rd-minute strike from a corner earned Pompey a third straight win, with safety in sight.

It is now one win in 17 for Leicester, whose demotion to the third tier 10 years after winning the Premier League could be confirmed as soon as Tuesday night, when they host Hull.
