Leicester win first Champions League home game

Leicester beat Porto in their first home Champions League game to maintain the winning start to their first season in Europe’s premier club competition.

Islam Slimani, who had a prolific scoring record against Porto with his former club Sporting Lisbon, headed the only goal from a Riyad Mahrez cross.

Porto substitute Jesus Corona hit the post, but the Foxes held on.

Leicester lead Group F by two points from second-placed FC Copenhagen, who they meet on 18 October.
