Leicester and Leeds tie 1-1 as Ghanaian defender Daniel Amartey watches on the sidelines

In the English Premier League on Tuesday, Leicester City had to work hard to tie Leeds United 1-1.

Daniel Amartey, a defender from Ghana, was named to the Foxes’ matchday squad but did not receive a starting position in the match played at Elland Road.

He had an opportunity to come off the bench and play for his team, but he was not required as they worked to recover from a deficit and secure a point.

The game today saw two teams fighting for points in a bid to increase their chances of escaping relegation.

In the first half, Leeds United perhaps were the better side as the team scored the only goal in the 45 minutes.

A strike from talented youngster Luis Sinistera in the 20th minute handed the hosts the lead.

After recess, Leicester City showed a lot of character and managed to draw level through star striker Jamie Vardy in the 80th minute.

After missing today’s game, Daniel Amartey has now been overlooked in three consecutive matches in the English Premier League.
