Harry Souttar cannoned a 95th minute header into the crossbar as Leicester City lost 1-0 to relegation battlers Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday.
Souttar received a 6/10 rating from Leicestershire Live who wrote: “He won a lot of headers, made good blocks, and mopped up well when his team-mates left him to defend by himself.
“A few passes went astray, but they didn’t put City in trouble, and otherwise he used the ball well. He’ll wonder how he missed that big chance at the end.”
Riley McGree started and played 68 minutes as promotion hopefuls Middlesbrough thrashed Dean Bouzanis’ Reading 5-0.
McGree earned an 8/10 rating from Evening Gazette who wrote: “Another confident display from Boro’s Australian international. Even more fluid than usual as he switched sides with Ramsey regularly, he always wanted the ball and always wanted to make things happen for his side.”
Bouzanis put in a full shift for the Royals.
