    FT: Leicester 2-2 Chelsea!! All over at the KP stadium! Rudiger put Chelsea ahead after the break, Barnes then levelled it up, Chilwell made it 2-1 before Rudiger grabbed a point for Chelsea. Chelsea were better in the first half while Leicester were on top in the second. A draw was a fair result. Thanks for joining us for this great game and see you again soon!
  • 96'
    The VAR gives it the all clear and I think that's the right call.
  • 95'
    Barnes claiming a penalty for handball by Rudiger and it hits his arm. His arm is slightly out, but not sure it's enough for a penalty.
  • 94'
    Chelsea looking to try and find a winner here. It will end 2-2 I think though.

de Leicester en el 54'
  • 54'
    Barnes scores for Leicester!!! His shot takes a massive deflection off Christensen I think and it goes into the net. It's all square here as TV are still with just two cameras.
  • 52'
    Corner for Leicester here now.
  • 49'
    Maddison hits the wall with his free-kick.
  • 49'

  • 48'
    Caballero!!! Great save by the goalie to deny Chilwell!
Goal
Goaaaaaal!
de Chelsea en el 46'
  • 46'
    Chelsea get a corner in the first minute and it's headed in at the back post. Rudiger with the goal. A major blow for Leicester, but what a way to celebrate your 100th Chelsea appearance.
  • 46'
    Back underway at the KP Stadium!!!
  • 45'
    HT: Leicester 0-0 Chelsea! Half-time at the KP stadium!! Both teams have had plenty of opportunities even though the keepers haven't had to make many saves. Caballero had to make one top save to deny Vardy, but Chelsea have looked a bit better in the first half. Not much to choose between the teams though and a draw is fair. Back for more in a bit!
  • 45'
    Choudhury!!! He jumps at the back post and heads narrowly wide of the goal!
  • 45'
    Leicester attack again!!! Vardy runs before giving to Ayoze and then his attempted pass to Barnes at the back post is knocked away by Kante for a corner.
  • 45'
    Hudson-Odoi completely miscues his strike after being given the ball by Abraham in the Leicester box. Just lacking that cutting edge.
  • 45'
    Two extra minutes.
  • 43'
    Pereira penalised for a foul.
  • 42'
    Leicester with desperate defending now to try and keep it 0-0! Chelsea look more dangerous, but they can't get the ball into the net.
  • 41'
    Chelsea!!! Hudson-Odoi crosses to Mount, Pereira gets there first and slips, Mount then hits towards goal and a sliding Evans stops it with his leg.
  • 39'
    Evans again!! A fabulous cross again by Reece James sees Pedro slide in to try and score and Evans knock it over the crossbar for a corner.
  • 37'
    Chilwell!!!!! He chests the ball at the far post, controls and then hits over the goal.
  • 36'
    Leicester win the corner after a cross is deflected.
  • 35'
    52% possession for the away side.
  • 33'
    Tielemans plays in Chilwell on this near side, he gives it to Barnes and the shot goes well over the bar!
  • 33'
    Shots: 3-2, on target: 1-1.
  • 31'
    Pedro!!! That was clever! The Spaniard tries a chip shot and Schmeichel has to tip it over.
  • 31'
    The free-kick hits Evans in the wall.
  • 30'
    Pedro is brought down by Evans just outside the box! The Leicester player doesn't like the call, but it's the right decision.
  • 28'
    Kante!!!! Tielemans goes down the far side and Kante puts him under immense pressure to make the Leicester man's pass from the byline a very weak one.
  • 28'
    The first 10 minutes were quiet, but it has certainly livened up now!
  • 27'
    Chelsea attack again through Pedro, his pass is left by Abraham and Mount can't do anything with it in the area.
  • 25'
    Vardy!!!! Great save by Caballero after a lovely chest pass from Ayoze! Leicester on top now.
  • 25'
    That was close!!! Maddison's delivery is a very good one and Evans nearly reaches it.
  • 24'
    Ayoze is fouled by his fellow countryman Pedro.
  • 23'
    Harvey Barnes is brought down by James on Chelsea's right and this free-kick will go into the box.
  • 23'

  • 21'
    VAR orders play on. Abraham was convinced, but there looked to be nothing.
  • 21'
    VAR checking, but looks nothing in it at all.
  • 20'
    Huge penalty shout for Chelsea turned down!!! Pedro threads a lovely ball through to Abraham and the Chelsea just goes down as Soyuncu attempts to get the ball. Looks nothing in it.
  • 18'
    And again!!! James sends in a great cross from this near side and Abraham is inches away from turning it into the goal.
  • 17'
    Good play by Chelsea, but Abraham slips inside the box as he is about to shoot.
  • 16'
    Lovely turn by Jorginho in his own half to get past the defence!
  • 14'
    Chelsea have started the better here. Will Leicester be tired from their last minute heartbreak in midweek in the Carabao Cup SF?
  • 11'
    What a miss by Mount!!! Hudson-Odoi runs into the box and passes to Mount who inexplicably fires over! The flag was up though. Mount wanted the ball earlier and by the time it was played to him, he had strayed offside.
  • 11'
    Back playing again.
  • 10'
    Rudiger and Vardy have clashed heads and are getting treatment. Doesn't look anything too serious.
  • 9'
    The corner from the other side is short once again, but Pedro's ball in finds nobody.
  • 8'
    Taken short to James on the near side and his cross is knocked behind by Evans. From the short corner, Hudson-Odoi's ball in is headed out by Evans for another corner.
  • 7'
    Chelsea are starting to pick up now and they have a free-kick 25 yards from goal. Choudhury went in late on Hudson-Odoi.
  • 5'
    Hudson-Odoi!! A great move by Chelsea begins with a run from Pedro who combines with Jorginho, but Hudson-Odoi does an air shot from the edge of the box!
  • 4'
    The ball has mainly been in Chelsea's half up to now, but little has happened.
  • 3'
    Jorginho concedes the first foul of the game at midfield. Quiet up to now.
  • 1'
    Leicester get us going from left to right!! Leicester in their usual colours and Chelsea in black with orange socks.
