Leicester book Man City clash

Agencies

Leicester: Leicester will face holders Manchester City in the League Cup quarter-finals after a 6-5 penalty shoot-out win over Southampton on Tuesday.

In a match rearranged following the tragic death of Leicester owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha in October, Claude Puel's side was held to a 0-0 draw by struggling Southampton at the King Power Stadium.

But in the shoot-out, Manolo Gabbiadini's effort was saved by Danny Ward before Nampalys Mendy bagged the winner for Leicester.

It was Leicester's first home victory since Vichai's helicopter crashed outside the club's stadium just days before they were scheduled to face the Saints in the fourth round tie.

Leicester, who last won the League Cup in 2000, will host Premier League champions City on December 18 for a place in the semi-finals.

Arsenal game moved to Kiev

Nyon: UEFA has moved Thursday's Europa League game in Ukraine between Arsenal and FC Vorskla to the capital city of Kiev after parliament voted to impose martial law in parts of the country.

UEFA says the game was moved "due to security concerns," adding that it "will continue to monitor and assess the security situation in Ukraine in the coming days before making any decision on potentially relocating other matches."

That could include Shakhtar Donetsk's Champions League game against Lyon on Dec 12. That's scheduled to be played in the city of Kharkiv, which is in a martial law zone.
