Puel's Frustration After Swansea Draw

- Leicester City draw 1-1 with Swansea City at King Power Stadium
- Jamie Vardy opened the scoring for Leicester City in the 17th minute
- Swansea captain Federico Fernández equalised with a header from a corner after the break
- Claude Puel felt his side deserved more after creating the better chances

Jamie Vardy linked up brilliantly with Kelechi Iheanacho in the 17th minute to put the Foxes ahead with a fine finish before Fousseni Diabaté and Iheanacho both went close to making it 2-0 before the break.

Swansea responded through a header from Federico Fernández early in the second half and despite the Foxes pushing hard for a winning goal in the closing stages, they had to settle for a point.

There were plenty of positives to take however, as Puel made five changes to his side and saw a much-improved performance from the midweek defeat away at Everton.

Puel said: “It is a big frustration. I think first well done to Swansea because they defended very well. They had just one chance in the game and I think we played very well in the first half. We created a lot of chances. We created of chances with quality and good combinations, a good understanding.

“It was amazing but without the final the clinical edge. We had to score another goal in the first half because it was a good period with quality. We put them under pressure with all these chances.

“It was a bit more difficult in the second half and perhaps there was some tiredness. We finished the game stronger and it is a big frustration because we conceded one chance in the entire game and we conceded a set piece goal.

“It is harsh for the team but we have to correct this situation because we conceded a lot of goals from set pieces since the beginning of the season. We could have had a good reward after this game because of a lack of focus and concentration from a set piece. It is harsh.”
