    If I was playing, I would be absolutely losing my head at that. It's another direct ball from Keating, straight through the middle.

    It's really hard because Willie Kirk's playing three at the back against a front three. It's asking a lot of the central defender.

    If you're City, you're thinking "are we going to rue those missed chances?" Realistically, they should be two or three up. Leicester are very, very fortunate.

    Plenty of last-ditch defending for Leicester at the moment with Man City pushing for more goals.

    Great save from Janina Leitzig and then Courtney Nevin clears off the line.

    Mary Fowler then tries to squeeze it in at the near post but somehow, Leicester survive.

    Leicester are open at the back but they are starting to pose a few questions to the Manchester City defence.

    I feel like putting my mic down and going home, with how open that defensive backline is for Leicester.

    The space is there for Shaw. Fowler's onside. You're asking if Shaw could release it earlier for Fowler and play it so that she can hit it first time.

    I'm surprised by Leicester because this is not what I've previously seen from them. If I'm the manager, I'm saying "let's change it" - because they could go in at half-time two or three down.

    A chance for Leicester!

    Hannah Cain threads the ball through to Lena Petermann who shoots towards goal but Khiara Keating makes a great save to deny her.

    Something for Leicester to build on.

    Julie Thibaud tackles Jill Roord as she looks to get a shot off.

    Plenty of defending for Leicester to do in this match.

    Leicester 0-1 Man City

    Esme Morgan is marauding forward and she is the latest Man City player to have a shot. It's tame and easily saved.

    Leicester are fortunate that only one goal has been scored in this game so far.

    Khadija Shaw slides the ball through to Mary Fowler, who is offside for the second time in the game.

    A lucky escape for Leicester.

    I'd just been singing Leicester's praises about how well they do defensively, but look at the backline for the goal - they're all over the place.

    The space opened up for Roord and Nevin had no chance, really, because she had to go in to Roord - she couldn't get over to Kelly as well.

    Leitzig should do better but, defensively, that's poor from Leicester. It's so disorganised. Roord has a big smile on her face, seeing that space to drive into.

    Chloe Kelly has another shot at goal and this time Janina Leitzig is equal to it.

    Khadija Shaw could have doubled Man City's lead almost instantly but delayed her shot and Leicester managed to clear.

    Suddenly the home side are all at sixes and sevens.

    Chloe Kelly (10 mins)

    Man City are in front!

    The space opens up for Jill Roord, she slides the ball through to Chloe Kelly who fires the ball low and hard at Janina Leitzig.

    Leitzig is unable to stop it from squirming underneath her and looks devastated to have conceded from a shot like that.
