Championship outfit too good for League Two hosts
A stunning second half goal from Dany N'Guessan set Leicester City on their way to the Carling Cup second round as they ran out 2-0 winners at Macclesfield.
Foxes striker Matty Fryatt added a fine second to secure a win that would have been decided earlier had it not been for profligacy in front of goal.
After dominating the first half but failing to convert any of their many chances, N'Guessan pounced on a fluffed clearance to thump a backheel into the corner of the net from eight yards.
Prized asset Fryatt sealed the win for the Foxes with a spectacular finish in the 73rd minute, racing neck-and-neck with centre-back Paul Morgan before turning inside the defender and lashing a left-foot drive in off post and crossbar.
In the first half Matt Oakley had fired a volley off the foot of the upright, Richie Wellens had powered a rising half-volley inches wide and Nicky Adams had seen a free-kick tipped wide by Jon Brain.
Macc might have equalised after the N'Guessan goal but Izak Reid saw his deflected shot bounce off the crossbar and over the waiting Junior Daniel.
Leicester might have added more goals at the death with substitute Conrad Logan seeing a drive cleared off the line.
