Everton v Man City postponed because of positive Man City Covid-19 tests
Wilfried Zaha
Stunning.
Wilfried Zaha makes it and finishes it in real style. He shows great feet and skill to carry the ball through the middle and manages to find Andros Townsend in space on the right.
He carries on the run into the box, peels off the defender at the back post and Townsend picks him out. Zaha then volleys it with his side-foot into the net from close range.

First change for Leicester. Youri Tielemans is on for Hamza Choudhury.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Nice patient build-up from Leicester but Jeffrey Schlupp gets a decent touch on it. He's had a really solid game.
Nampalys Mendy is then forced all the way back to the keeper. Palace very well organised.
Everton v Manchester City (cancelled)
Premier League statement on the cancellation of Everton v Manchester City at 20:00 GMT.
Manchester City’s fixture at Everton, due to be played at 8pm this evening, has been postponed following a Premier League Board meeting.
Manchester City lodged a request with the Premier League today to rearrange the game following an increase in positive COVID-19 test results received by the club this morning, on top of the cases reported on Christmas Day.
This rise has created uncertainty and the Premier League Board received medical advice that the match should be postponed. The Board agreed to rearrange the game as a precaution, and further testing will now take place tomorrow.
The decision has been taken with the health of players and staff the priority.
The Premier League continues to have full confidence in its protocols and rules, and the way in which all clubs are implementing them.
The League wishes those with COVID-19 a safe and speedy recovery and will rearrange the postponed fixture against Everton in due course
Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Nathaniel Clyne's cross is too high for Christian Benteke and Kasper Schmeichel gathers it in.
He quickly releases Ayoze Perez on the right but it's won back by Andros Townsend, who then goes on a decent run down the other end.

Vinny Suggs: Think it’s harsh for people to say Hodgson time is up, get Eddie Howe in... be careful what you wish for.. Eddie Howe took Bournemouth as far he could.. “Championship”.
Abdhakeem Olayiwola: I don't think Iheanacho deserves all these criticism he has received. Irrespective of the style, the best penalty is the one which hits the back of the net. People are quick to criticise whenever a player attempted a style and it fails. Cristiano Ronaldo had one saved last week.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Hamza Choudhyry goes into the book as Jeffrey Schlupp beats him to a loose ball in midfield.
Roy Hodgson is muttering to himself on the sidelines.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Jeffrey Schlupp is in space when it's left to run through by Christian Benteke. He tees up Wilfried Zaha but he fires it over the bar from the edge of the box.
That was a decent chance!
Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Wilfried Zaha gets into the box but his cross is deflected favourably into the hands of Kasper Schmeichel.
Confirmed.

Khun Kai: Zaha too lazy to work today when he loses the ball. Happens often. Palace have 10 men. This is why Zaha is not picked up by big team.
Should be continuous run up on penalties, no hopping or stutters.Taker obviously attempting unfair advantage.Please ban the practice.

Morris dance routine. Brilliant!

Sean: Iheanacho off now. Just not his day/season.
Glad this ridiculous Morris dance routine before taking a penalty is being snuffed out by keepers now. Just take the penalty.

Think Hodgson has taken Palace as far as he can, new direction is needed #eddiehowe.
Tony S, London
Unfair advantage to penalty taker to stutter or jump, already got overwhelming odds in his favour.
John, Leigh
HT: Crystal Palace 0-0 Leicester City
Kelechi Iheanacho missed the first penalty he took in the Premier League during that half.
He has yet to score his first PL goal this season. He netted his last goal in Leicester's 3-0 home win v Palace on 4 July.
