Aleksandar Kolarov does indeed fire it in, with pace, and Foxes keeper Kasper Schmeichel is relieved to see Robert Huth back to turn it over the bar for a corner, which Leicester clear.

A chance for Manchester City here. Pablo Zabaleta wants a penalty when he is sent flying by Christian Fuchs on the right-hand edge of the area, but referee Anthony Taylor decides it is just outside.

Aleksandar Kolarov to fire it in...

"I feel sorry for Fernandinho, Yaya Toure has not got the legs to keep up with him in midfield and there is so much space. They should put Delph in midfield and give Toure a freer role behind Aguero."

In the stands, the Leicester fans are enjoying themselves, chanting "we are staying up". 

On the pitch, their team are still looking the most dangerous, with Jamie Vardy running at, and away from Nicolas Otamendi down the left, before firing in a low cross that Shinji Okazaki is only just unable to turn home. Close, again.

Manchester City have had more than 72% of possession so far, but it is not doing them too much good. Danny Drinkwater is bossing midfield for Leicester at the moment - first into every tackle and not wasting a pass.

So, this is the pattern of the game. Leicester are defending deep and in numbers when Manchester City have the ball. Then looking to break quickly when they win it back.

It is working pretty well, although David Silva did just work some space in the crowded area and get away the home side's first shot, which rolled a yard wide.

"Yaya Toure is playing as a centre-midfielder alongside Fernandinho but where are they?

"Leicester have the freedom of the park, there is no midfield when they break. The back four are so exploited."

It is not just when Leicester break that Manchester City's defence looks a mess. It just took three of their defenders to deal with a bouncing ball that Jamie Vardy was trying to get on the end of.

Every time Leicester break, they look like scoring. Riyad Mahrez plays in Danny Drinkwater, but Joe Hart is off his line to deny him from a tight angle, and save his side again.

"Martin Demichelis has not got the yards on Jamie Vardy he has been found wanting in this game already."

There is a fantastic tempo to this game, but it is still Leicester who are creating the best chances. Manchester City have just got forward well down the right through Pablo Zabaleta, but N'Golo Kante blocked his cross and the resulting corner was cleared.

Leicester are in again here. A ball over the top finds Jamie Vardy, and he gets his shot away, but Joe Hart is out to block and Nicolas Otamendi gets to the loose ball a fraction before Shinji Okazaki.

"Manchester City will be kicking themselves. They started sluggishly. But look at the marking, there is no height on the ball. It comes to Huth, there is no-one in front of him. He uses his trength and gets there before Demichelis who gives him far too much space. It is terrible defending the cross should have been cut off well before it got to Huth.

 "Leicester City can now play their favourite game and play on the break."

No, Sergio Aguero is fine. Leicester put the ball out of play so he can get treatment, but he says he doesn't need any.

Things might be about to get even worse for Manchester City. Their striker Sergio Aguero is hobbling badly.
