Leicester boss Nigel Pearson is annoyed with the two goals that his side conceded during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Barnsley.

Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson has expressed his frustration at the two goals that his side conceded during Saturday's 2-2 draw with Barnsley in the Championship.

The Foxes took the lead at the King Power Stadium before the visitors got themselves in front with minutes remaining.

However, David Nugent struck in the 90th minute to earn Leicester a share of the spoils.

"I didn't think Barnsley were ever in the game, but we gifted them two goals and then had to fight very hard to get something out of it," Pearson told Sky Sports News.

"We started the game well but then gave them two goals out of nothing. That was disappointing but we got something out of the game and that has got to be a positive. But we've got to win those sort of games."

Despite the draw, Leicester have slipped down to fifth place in the table.
