OFF THE BAR!!! Amartey comes forward and picks out Perez in the box. He creates space and fires a shot beyond Mendy, but it smashes back off the bar!!! Another fantastic chance for Leicester to equalise!

More good play from Leicester sees Tielemans lay the ball off to Perez. He aims to find the far post with his effort, but can only send the ball sailing over the bar and behind.

Another lofted throughball from Tielemans breaks the Chelsea defence, with Castagne the man to race onto it this time. He floats a cross to the near post, where Silva is there to put it behind for a Foxes corner!

Leicester are camped in the Chelsea half at the moment, just looking for that final pass to find an equaliser with. They're being somewhat wasteful though, as Dewsbury-Hall's wide pass to Justin rolls straight over the sideline.
