Ghana defender Jeffrey Schlupp won a crucial penalty to ensure his team picked up a point against West Ham United in the English Premier League.

The Ghanaian who recently recovered from a thigh injury was the hero as his side were seconds away from tasting defeat at home.

In-form striker Jamie Vardy scored for the Foxes but he was sent off after diving in the West Ham United penalty box.

Leicester City skipper Wes Morgan gave away a penalty and Andy Carroll stepped up to score.

Cresswel made it two for the Hammers who were hoping to become the first team to pick up all three points at the King power after Arsenal.

But Schlupp made a trademark run into the box and attracted a foul and Ulloa stepped up to deliver and pick up a point for his side.

Leicester City now lead the English Premier League with 8 points and four games to go.
