From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

Peterborough United 0-0 Leicester City

1' - We are underway in Peterborough!

Peterborough United 0-0 Leicester City

5' - It's been a slow start at the ABAX Stadium with both teams still feeling each other out. Yohan Benalouane had a decent early chance for the visitors but his volley from a good Demarai Gray cross was poor and the ball went wide.

Peterborough United 0-0 Leicester City

7' - Kelechi Iheanacho takes aim from just outside the box but his curled effort is easily held by Jonathan Bond in the Peterborough goal.

GOAL! Peterborough United 0-1 Leicester City (Diabate, 9)

Adrien Silva slides Fousseni Diabate in on goal and the debutant makes no mistake with his finish as he pokes the ball into the far corner from a tight angle.

GOAL! Peterborough United 0-2 Leicester City (Iheanacho, 12)

Peterborough's Christopher Forrester concedes possession very cheaply deep inside his own half and Kelechi Iheanacho punishes him with a lethal finish into the far corner from just outside the area.

It's a long way back from here for the League One side.

Peterborough United 0-2 Leicester City

14' - Leicester's Vicente Iborra is booked for a foul on Anthony Grant.
