Leicester progress at Millwall’s expense after Ademola Lookman punishes error

Leicester City eased their way into the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, seeing off an eager but limited Millwall thanks to a neat finish from one-time local boy Ademola Lookman, and a late second from the persevering Kelechi Iheanacho.

This was a slow-burn cup tie and a performance from Brendan Rodgers’ team that was notable only for the isolated moments of quality that made the difference. “We had really good control of the game,” Rodgers’ assistant Chris Davies said afterwards, but perhaps the most significant note was the edge offered by Iheanacho in his second start of the season.
