    Chris Kavanagh brings this game to a close.

    Talk about typical Boro - they lose four of the last eight, two in a row.

    Then against all odds they have beaten the champions-elect.

    Would you believe it, what a performance.

    Leicester chucked the lot at it but Middlesbrough hold out for a big win over the league leaders.

    Boro do the double over the Foxes thanks to goals from Finn Azaz and Sammy Silvera.

    Jamie Vardy pulled one back but it wasn't enough.

    Huddersfield 0-1 Hull City

    There's still a few minutes to play in this because of a couple of stoppages in the first half.

    Huddersfield have got to throw the lot at trying to get a leveller here.

    The second-half has been quite poor to be honest.

    I don't see a winner here.

    Leicester 1-2 Middlesbrough

    Leicester throw on veteran winger Marc Albrighton for the closing moments.

    The away side bring on defender Anferenee Dijksteel for midfielder Riley McGree.

    Heading into time added on now.

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees

    Everyone in a white shirt has played their part, each and everyone of them this afternoon.

    Both sides have missed a few chances today.

    Leicester in a big hurry to get on with things now.

    Four minutes of added time for Boro to hang on in there for here.

    GOAL: Leicester 1-2 Middlesbroughpublished at 16:44 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Jamie Vardy (85 mins)

    Back in it!

    A few minutes after shanking over a great chance for the home side, veteran Jamie Vardy does what he has been doing for this club for 12 years.

    Clinical finish after being played in on goal.

    Can the leaders find a late leveller now?

  8. CLOSE!published at 16:43 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Bristol 0-1 QPR

    Again the home fans at Ashton Gate are on their feet - they thought Tommy Conway had scored the equaliser!

    But the midfielder - who is their leading scorer this season - shoots just wide from a tight angle.

    Can the Robins score with less than 10 minutes of normal time remaining?

    We said at the the beginning of this match that QPR were one of the most in-form sides toward the bottom of the table and they are proving it right now.

  9. Postpublished at 16:42 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Millwall 0-2 Sheff Wed

    A good day for the struggling Owls in terms of scoreline but could it be costly in terms of personnel?

    Skipper Barry Bannan makes way as part of a triple change and the influential Scot looks to be in real discomfort.

  10. goal

    GOAL: Norwich 4-1 Cardiffpublished at 16:41 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Christian Fassnacht (77 mins)

    Clinical.

    Norwich put this game to bed with their fourth of the afternoon against Cardiff, who've lacked answers against the play-off chasing Canaries.

    Christian Fassnacht gets off the mark after latching onto Sydney van Hooijdonk's delivery.

    What a turnaround!

    Jay Stansfield strikes for Birmingham from a set piece and the ball eventually finds its way to Koji Miyoshi who finds the net having thwarted Sunderland's attempts to mark him.

    Blues boss Tony Mowbray is 10 minutes away from getting one on his former club.

    Preston 2-2 Blackburn

    We're into the final 10 minutes of the Lancashire derby and it remains finely poised, as you might expect.

    Can either side find a winner?

  13. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:40 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Huddersfield 0-1 Hull City

    Sorba Thomas sees a shot come back off the post after being played in by Delano Burgzorg.

    Huddersfield still have about 15 minutes to get something from this.

  14. Postpublished at 16:39 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Leicester 0-2 Middlesbrough

    Veteran striker Jamie Vardy thumps a shot over from close range.

    Starting to feel like it just isn't going to be the home side's day.

  15. Postpublished at 16:37 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Leicester 0-2 Middlesbrough

    Middlesbrough bring on Marcus Forss for Sammy Silvera.

    That's both their goalscorers subbed off now.

    Birmingham 1-1 Sunderland

    Richard Wilford
    BBC Radio WM commentator

    27,449 is the official attendance today, I don't think there are quite that many here, but they did sell that many tickets.

    The atmosphere has been tremendous.

  17. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:36 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Swansea 1-2 Ipswich

    Ipswich continue to lead Swansea as time ticks down in this one.

    The visitors continue to press to maintain their lead and Nathan Broadhead sends Kieffer Moore through on goal but the former Cardiff striker hits the woodwork with his effort.

  18. 'Get out the way man!'published at 16:32 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Leicester 0-2 Middlesbrough

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Tees

    Get out the way man!

    That through ball hit the referee.

    That high line that they play, the ball was going forward into all that space. Could have been a big chance.

  19. Postpublished at 16:31 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Leicester 0-2 Middlesbrough

    For all the four subs they have made and 15 attempts they've had, the league leaders have not registered a single shot on target yet.

    In fact there have only been two shots on target in this whole game - and both of them have been by the away side in the first 45 minutes.

    Clinical from them.

  20. Postpublished at 16:30 Greenwich Mean Time 17 February

    Bristol City 0-1 QPR

    It's gone a bit stagnant at Ashton Gate.

    Bristol City have made a number of substitutions to try and get some fresh legs on and turn this game around.

    But QPR are comfortably holding onto this lead.
