Gray lifts grieving Leicester
Leicester paid an emotional tribute to Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha as the grief-stricken club won 1-0 at Cardiff following their owner's tragic death, while Alexandre Lacazette's late equaliser gave Arsenal a 1-1 draw against Liverpool on Saturday.
With Vichai's funeral underway in Bangkok, Leicester headed to Cardiff for a match that served as a chance to honour their owner and begin the healing process.
Leicester took the points in their first match since Vichai's death, thanks to Demarai Gray's second-half winner.
"I feel proud. It's been a really tough week for everyone. The way everyone at the club handles themselves is a testament to the family Vichai built," goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel said. "That took a lot. It has been an emotional day. I'm glad we got three points for him. "I can't imagine what his family are going through. We did it for him and his family."
