Watch: Captain Morgan fires Leicester ahead vs. Sevilla

Wes Morgan, ever the unlikely hero.

Courtesy of the robust Jamaican international's 27th-minute goal, Leicester City took a 1-0 lead over Sevilla Tuesday in Champions League last-16 second-leg action at the King Power Stadium.

Jorge Sampaoli's Andalusians have nobody to blame but themselves. Vicente Iborra slid in on Jamie Vardy on the elbow of the area, giving Riyad Mahrez the opportunity to fire an incisive free-kick toward the back post, where Morgan bungled home his third goal of the season in all competitions.

With the aggregate score levelled at two goals apiece, the Foxes would make a historic progression to the quarter-finals on the away-goal rule thanks to Vardy's tally in the reverse fixture at the Sanchez Pizjuan.
