    Lads? Lads?

    Get inside and get a shower quick.

    Those were epic performances in truly atrocious conditions.

    Leicester get their first win, but Swansea can be proud of their second-half fightback.

    As a spectacle this has been brilliant.

    Not great to play in, I imagine.

    Seconds remaining.

  5. CLOSE!published at 90+2mins

    Leicester 2-1 Swansea

    Riyad Mahrez curls a low shot just past Lukasz Fabianski's right-hand post.

  6. CRUCIAL CLEARANCEpublished at 90+1 mins

    Leicester 2-1 Swansea

    Danny Simpson makes a vital clearance from Modou Barrow's cross.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 86 mins

    Leroy Fer

    Finally. Joy for Modou Barrow and his crossing.

    The Gambian delivers another peach of a delivery and this time Leroy Fer is on the end of it to head past Ron Robert Zieler.

    Precision on that header.

  9. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 79 mins

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Here's a rare one - Shinji Okazaki is replaced.

    In all fairness, he'll be delighted to come off - big effort in horrendous conditions.

    Leonardo UIloa comes on to replace him.

    Standard.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 76 mins

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Leicester's record signing Ahmed Musa comes on for Marc Albrighton.

    It's still raining and it appears one of the floodlights has been damaged by the lightning. The MacGyvers in the crowd have been using their mobile phones to light up the dark areas of the stadium.

    You guys!!!

    The Foxes go hunting for a third but this time Shinji Okazaki falls in the area at the vital moment after another quick counter.

  12. YELLOW CARDpublished at 67 mins

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Un-Fer?

    The Swansea midfielder goes into the book either for his foul on Riyad Mahrez or for protesting to ref Roger East.

    Moments later, Marc Albrighton swings in a free-kick that Wes Morgan only just fails to get a toe to.

    That could have been a second goal for the captain.

    It's still raining.

    Now then. You read how Kasper Schmeichel came out to prevent Fernando Llorente getting on the end of a through-ball.

    Well, he hurt himself in the process and has been replaced by summer signing Ron Robert Zieler. Great name.

    Mahrez has placed it and if you do that the 'keeper has to go the wrong way.

    It was a dolly mixture. 

    Fabianski was lying there waiting for it. It was a poor kick.

  16. MISSED PENALTYpublished at 56 mins

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Oh Riyad!!!

    Mahrez steps up and tries to slot his kick to Lukasz Fabianski's right - but the keeper guesses right.

    Okazaki's follow-up is also saved by the Swansea man.

    At one end, Kasper Schmeichel comes out to beat Fernando Llorente to the ball.

    At the other end, Shinji Okazaki is fouled by Jordi Amat in the area.

    Leicester can put this game out of sight.

    Wes Morgan

    Smashed!

    A corner comes in from the right. Both Leicester central defenders Robert Huth and Wes Morgan go for the ball, but it's the skipper who has the final bite and lashes his volley into the roof of the net.

    You don't stop those.

    The old Vardy-Drinkwater give-and-go almost pays dividends again. This time Swansea track back and Vardy's cross from wide right is dealt with by the defence.
