Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson frustrated with Peterborough loss

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson has lamented his side's finishing in front of goal in their 2-1 defeat to Peterborough United.

The Foxes took the lead through Ben Marshall but were pegged back by a Davide Petrucci strike, and with two minutes to go Posh midfielder Grant McCann struck to seal a win for the home side.

"It's a poor result, we had enough chances to win it and it's an opportunity missed," Pearson told the club's official website.

"We've had 20 attempts today – I'd have been disappointed with a draw, but to lose it, I'm obviously not very happy."

Leicester missed the chance to leapfrog Hull City in the automatic promotion places and remain third in the Championship.
