    Konsa is booked for dissent. He was not happy that his side never got the throw-in and threw the ball away.
  • 54'
    Target fires his shot from outside the box past the post.
  • 54'
    Grealish fires his effort from inside the box past the post.
  • 53'
    Still no chances in this half yet.
  • 48'
    Villa are 42 minutes away from making their first League Cup final in just over 10 years. Still lots of football to be played though.
  • 46'
    And we're back!!!
  • 45'
    HT: Aston Villa 1-0 Leicester. The visitors started the match on top but since the hosts got the goal there hasn't been much in it. All to play for in the 2nd half.
  • 45'
    1 minute added time.
  • 41'
    Villa look like they will be heading into the break in front.
  • 34'
    So unlucky from Tielmans. He has a shot from the edge of the box, Hyland gets a slight touch and it smashes off the bar. What a game Hyland is having.
  • 29'
    Maddison skews his shot from the edge of the box well wide.
  • 26'
    I'm wondering if Brendan Rodgers will bring on Vardy at half-time, they need a goal.
  • 21'
    Ricardo has a shot from about 25 yards out that goes wide.
  • 17'
    A reminder that it's currently 2-1 to Aston Villa on aggregate so they will be heading to Wembley as things stand.
  • 15'
    Douglas Luiz steps up and puts his free-kick just over the bar.
  • 14'
    Grealish has just won a free-kick in shooting distance. A good chance to get a shot on target.
  • 13'
    And it's completely against the run of play. Grealish works his way into the box, he then passes it to the overlapping Targett and from a tight angle the full-back drills it into the net past Schmeichel.

Goaaaaaal!

    Another shot from Maddison. He fires a shot from the edge of the box that Hyland again gets down to and parries wide.
  • 7'
    Leicester doing really well. Maddison hits his half volley just wide from the edge of the box.
  • 5'
    Great save from Nyland. Maddison has a shot from inside the box that looks like its heading for the bottom corner, but Nyalnd gets down and tips it wide.
  • 3'
    Iheanacho breaks through and from a tight angle hits his shot at Nyland.
  • 1'
    And we're off!!!
