    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Leicester have started the half in menacing mood, as Leo Ulloa twice gets behind the Swans backline but on both occasions he can't quite link up with a fellow man in blue. 

    High energy stuff.

    So Swansea have more of an attacking bent now with Alberto Paloschi patrolling up front. They are yet to register a shot on target though.

    Goal at Wembley! Troy Deeney heads in and it's all to play for now.

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    A dominant first half performance by Leicester. Only once this season have they had a two-goal lead at half time and that was right back in the first game of the season.

    Considering they have lost just once at home in their previous 20 fixtures, it's hard to see Swansea getting back into this one.

    Here come the players back out of the tunnel. I wonder what Claudio Ranieri's half-time chat was?

  8. The best chants in the leaguepublished at 17:15 British Summer Time 24 April 2016

    Our friends at BBC Music have done this. And it's great.

    "When it comes to pop music and football, the rules are pretty simple. The song must have an easy chorus to chant, and be easily adaptable lyrically for optimum praise of a club's player, or insult of the opposition. Or the song needs to be specific to the club - by referring to the club's colours, or perhaps it's by a local band who are fans, as it is when Man City supporters sing Wonderwall by Oasis.

    "Whether the song is an all-time classic outside of football is hardly a consideration, but there are times when truly great tracks become part of terrace culture - adapted, or sung with original lyrics. As the season reaches its climax, here's a list of what we think are the 10 best - in no particular order."

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Momentum, and winning games, can do that for a club. A stadium. A fanbase.

    Leicester City are making a step closer to the title this afternoon. And doing it in style.

    UNLESS Swansea can invoke the spirit of Crystal Palace 2014. Dwight Gayle.

    Phil McNulty
    BBC Sport chief football writer

    "None of the tension that gripped The King Power Stadium against West Ham United has been in evidence today.

    "There was almost a mood of celebration as the half-time whistle went. For all Swansea City's neat football they have barely threatened and this has been as routine as it gets for The Foxes so far."

    Danny Drinkwater provided the assist for Leicester's second. That was his sixth assist of the season but the first for a player other than Jamie Vardy.

    "Brilliant first half from Leicester. Ulloa coming in to the side gets the second after Mahrez pounced on Williams' mistake. Can they get another clean sheet? I can't see Swansea getting back into this game."

    Alex, Liverpool fan: If Leicester win the League, it'll be one of the greatest sporting achievements of all time - most definitely the greatest in Premier League history. It shows anyone, not just in football, that you don't need bags of money or the best players to achieve the dream, just some hard work and determination.

    I like to believe that Robert Huth is actually on a basic rate of £7.75 per hour, plus a piece-rate bonus for every header made...

    Stephen Burke: Smarty (see 16:53). Yeah I can relate to the Leicester players as I'm also on 40k a week.

    Not much luck going Leicester's way today in my opinion. Riyad Mahrez profited from a mistake to open the scoring and then Leo Ulloa smashed in a cracking header.
