A first-half goal from Neil Danns earns Leicester City a 1-0 win over local rivals Derby County at Pride Park.

Leicester City have kept their slim promotion hopes alive with a 1-0 win at local rivals Derby County.

The decisive moment came on 16 minutes when Neil Danns found the bottom corner of the net from inside the area.

Lloyd Dyer could have made sure of the win in the final minutes, but he hit the post and then the crossbar from close range.

The win has pushed Nigel Pearson's side up to 12th in the Championship table, while, Nigel Clough's team remain 15th after their third consecutive defeat.
