Maupay fluffs lines from the spot

• Having offered the primary speaking factors of Brighton’s win over Arsenal, Neal Maupay took centre stage once more in a draw with Leicester City.

Neal Maupay was in the highlight once more as he missed a penalty in Brighton and Hove Albion’s 0-Zero draw at Leicester City. 

The French ahead was concerned in a conflict with Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno after which scored a last-gasp winner in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over the Gunners. 

But he was denied from the spot on Tuesday, Kasper Schmeichel making the save in the 14th minute after James Justin had fouled Aaron Connolly. 

The Seagulls are six factors away from the Premier League’s backside three, with the Foxes’ hole to fifth-placed Manchester United now 9 factors. 

YES. KASPER.@KSchmeichel1 will get down brilliantly to disclaim Neal Maupay from the spot!  pic.twitter.com/45ioFxHBpQ
