West Ham winner might be my most important Leicester goal - King

Leicester City midfielder Andy King has claimed that his winner in a 2-1 victory against West Ham United on Saturday might be the most important goal of his time with the club.

The Wales international is the club's longest-serving player and his first goal in the Premier League four minutes from time gave the bottom-placed Foxes a much-needed first win since January.

"To get a win like that and to have played well hopefully means we've turned the corner," said King."We want to put a little run together now.

"It's always nice to score for the only club you've ever played for, and to do it in the Premier League. I've had a brilliant journey with this club.

"I've scored some pretty crucial ones before, but we might look back at the end of the season and that might turn out to be my most important.

"We've played well enough to prove we can survive and we've not turned it into results - this is a results business."

Leicester City still sit bottom of the Premier League table, six points away from safety.
