    Jeff Walsh: Hankies at the ready at half-time. The Norwich players seem to get nosebleeds as they drift further up the pitch!

    Jamal Lewis does well to keep alive a deflected pass and strides towards the box. He feeds Todd Cantwell but the Norwich man loses the ball under his feet as he tries to wrongfoot his marker.

    Norwich need to push up a little bit more, every time Leicester get the ball the first thing they do is drop deeper. They need to close the space between the defence and the front line. If they press higher up and win the ball, they're already there.

    Todd Cantwell tries to drive Norwich through the middle but Leicester are really packing that area now. Teemu Pukki still manages to squeeze a shot off when the ball spills out to him but it drifts harmlessly wide.

    Wha...!? How did he miss that?

    We're not quite talking Pierre-Emerick Aubamyeng levels of bad misses but it is a bad miss all the same from Kelechi Iheanacho. He is picked out five yards from goal by Ayoze Perez, takes a touch, turns and volleys over.

    His blushes were probably spared, though, because had he scored it would probably have been disallowed for a handball as he controlled the cross.

    Ayoze Perez opens up a pocket of space for himself on the edge of the area but he scuffs his shot along the grass and Tim Krul scoops up comfortably.

    Leicester have another corner - their fifth of the game - as Ayoze Perez's shot deflects behind. James Maddison plays it short to Dennis Praet, who in turn finds Ben Chilwell but the full-back's ball into the box is cleared.

    This might explain why we haven't had any goals yet - on the left is Teemu Pukki's touch map, and on the right is Kelechi Iheanacho's. Just one touch in the box between them.

    Better service required?

    It went well wide, in case you were wondering.

    James Maddison's corner runs through the box and just behind Caglar Soyuncu, who attempts an overhead kick.

    The outcome is exactly what you would expect from a defender attempting an overhead kick.

  14. 'Every time Cantwell gets the ball the tempo lifts'published at 20:32 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2020

    Norwich 0-0 Leicester

    Mark Schwarzer
    Former Fulham keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Every time Todd Cantwell gets the ball, you think something's going to happen. The tempo and pace of the game lifts 10 or 20 percent every time he touches it.

    Lovely touch by Harvey Barnes sends Ben Chilwell away but his touch is heavy as he tries to cut inside and Norwich step in to clear.

    James Maddison talks through some tactics with boss Brendan Rodgers on the touchline before both Ben Chilwell and Max Aarons get back on their feet and play continues.

    Norwich 0-0 Leicester

    There's a break in play as Ben Chilwell and Max Aarons receive treatment after colliding into each other.

    No goals but it has been a pretty fast-paced start so both sides could probably do with the little breather.

  18. 'Leicester have lifted a gear'published at 20:27 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2020

    That was the moment Leicester actually lifted a gear, rather than being at this slower pace. They were more precise, more direct with sharper, crisper passing and it gave Norwich problems.

    Tim Krul spills a James Maddison cross into the middle of the dangerzone but Norwich just about manage to scramble clear. The Canaries are under a bit of pressure at the moment.

    Now Ayoze Perez twists, turns and gets a shot off inside the box that Grant Hanley turns behind. Leicester have suddenly turned it on in attack.
