    Max Aarons has had a great game, and a contender for MOTM, surely? McLean looks absolutely dead on his feet. Need a midfielder on to help plug up the channels.

    Martin, a very nervous Norwich fan

    Leicester again snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. No killer instinct and hardly any points on the board since New Year. Appalling.

    Leicester have had what feels like 90% possession over the last five minutes but they are finding it hard to open up gaps in the Norwich defence.

    They've got to work hard now, Norwich, these last 10 minutes or so they've got to really put it in. It's going to be hard but they've got to really fight for their lives. If they want any chance of staying in the Premier League they need these three points.

    Mark Schwarzer
    Former Fulham keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Leicester are pushing now and Norwich are dropping deeper, that's the only concern. As the game goes on, you've got to try and keep up that high line, put the pressure on the ball.

    If they can hang on to three points, this could change everything for them.

    Absolutely brilliant finish - he hits the outside of the ball, got some real swerve on it, starting outside the line of the post and curling back in. Kasper Schmeichel had absolutely no chance.

    It all came about from that change in pace after Ondrej Duda's chance. From that moment onward, Norwich had an extra spring in their step.

    GOAL - Norwich 1-0 Leicesterpublished at 70 mins

    Jamal Lewis

    BIG goal!

    Max Aarons' deep cross from the right finds Jamal Lewis just inside the box and unmarked. The full-back takes a touch before driving low into the far corner.

    Lovely strike and one that could have massive implications at the bottom of the table. If they can hold on, Norwich will be four points from safety...

    Should have been 1-0! For once Norwich got numbers forward and attacked with purpose. Unfortunately, the end product wasn't very good.

    First change of the night as Wilfred Ndidi makes a return from injury, replacing Hamza Choudhury.

    Ndidi is straight into action to defend a Norwich free kick, which Ondrej Duda slams into the wall.

    Harvey Barnes breaks towards the Norwich box but his low shot is easy pickings for Tim Krul.

    Both sides getting forward regularly now, though, surely a goal is going to come?

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 63 mins

    Norwich 0-0 Leicester

    Dennis Praet is late on Max Aarons and the Leicester midfielder is the second player to pick up a booking in this game. Ondrej Duda bends the free kick in from midway inside the Leicester half but Hamza Choudhury heads away.
