A STORMING final 15 minutes saw Leicester overcome a controversial penalty to beat Swansea and grab their first win in five matches.
Leicester looked like heading to a fifth straight draw when Wout Faes was penalised for a slide tackle in which he won the ball.
But Marti Cifuentes' side came fighting back, with Abdul Fatawu replicating Jordan James' first-half stunner by curling into the top corner.
Jannik Vestergaard's late header clinched the points to send them third while Swansea slipped to 11th.
Cifuentes said: "Credit to the guys that they scored two fantastic goals from two fantastic strikes."
