Leicester City's Esteban Cambiasso hailed the 'special victory' over Manchester United, but his mind is now focused on the six-pointer against Crystal Palace.

The former Argentina midfielder marked his home debut with a goal for Leicester in their amazing 5-3 win over United on Sunday.

However, the summer signing, a free transfer after he left Inter Milan, has now turned his mind to Saturday's clash with Palace as he seeks to help Nigel Pearson’s team in their quest to stay up.

The 34-year-old said: "It's a special victory. Special for my team-mates and also for the supporters. I am very happy for scoring but most of all for the victory.

"Now we can celebrate for one day this victory because we have to put our minds to the next game."
