    And there's the full-time whistle. Ten-man Leicester see out what was a very entertaining game.

    That's all the action done and dusted for today at the King Power Stadium.

    Credit to Claude Puel's men though, they've dealt with losing Jamie Vardy very efficiently.

    Leicester are going to hold on here but Jamie Vardy really didn't help his side who were otherwise in a fairly comfortable position.

    Wolves have failed to make the most of being a man up, although Adama Traore has been a real positive for the visitors today.

    A wait for a first Premier League victory since 2012 is going to go on for the visitors.

    Can Wolves find anything in these dying stages?

    They're running out of time at the King Power Stadium.

    Ruben Neves loves a good strike from absolutely nowhere doesn't he?

    He tries to catch Kasper Schmeichel off-guard but the Leicester captain is alert and ready.

    In my opinion, the right decision by Mike Dean to send Jamie Vardy off.

    Alex Scott
    Ex-Arsenal Ladies & England international on Final Score

    Even seeing the replays of Jamie Vardy's tackle I have to keep turning away. He's trying to win the ball back and it's the follow through that has got him sent off. Not a pretty one to look at.

  8. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 80mins

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    James Maddison, who has had an excellent home debut for the Foxes, and Demarai Gray leave the field to much applause.

    Adrien Silva and Kelechi Iheanacho are on for Claude Puel's side.

    Another opportunity for Wolves to pull a goal back goes begging.

    Leo Bonatini is again in the right place but his effort doesn't trouble Kasper Schmeichel one bit.

    Sixteen minutes for 10-man Leicester to hold on.

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    Adama Traore is causing plenty of problems and whips in a cross for team-mate Leo Bonatini who can't keep his effort on goal down.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 67mins

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    Matt Doherty has had to come off as a result of that Jamie Vardy tackle.

    He's replaced by England youth international Morgan Gibbs-White.

  12. RED CARD - Jamie Vardypublished at 65mins

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    Nasty. Jamie Vardy is reckless as he attempts to beat Matt Doherty to the ball.

    No doubt in Mike Dean's eyes. Vardy is dismissed and Leicester must try to hang on with 10 men.

    Wolves are making all the running, but Leicester are looking lethal on the counter-attack.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:20 British Summer Time 18 August 2018

    Marc Albrighton leaves the field for the home side, to be replaced by Daniel Amartey.

    Wolves have forced seven corners so far to Leicester's one.

    They have another one here, but again it comes to nothing.

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    Adama Traore has certainly added a lot to this Wolves attack.

    The 22-year-old is more than happy to run at whoever stands in his way and has gained plenty of ground for the visitors since joining the action.

    Almost an embarrassing one for Kasper Schmeichel there.

    A mix-up between the Denmark keeper and Ben Chilwell almost ends very badly, but Chilwell is able to recover in time

    A slow start by Leicester in the first half is matched by a slow start in the second.

    Following the lessons of the first 45 minutes, Claude Puel probably won't panic.

    Michael Appleton
    Former Leicester City assistant manager on Final Score

    This Leicester-Wolves game has been so open, it is like a cup tie or a basketball game. Wolves will feel unfortunate to be 2-0 down, especially they way it happened, so it will be an exciting half.

  20. Postpublished at 48mins

    Leicester 2-0 Wolves

    Adama Traore has an instant impact for Wolves.

    His cross almost tees up Raul Jimenez, who is unable to get his shot away.

    Wolves start brightly again.
