    Gnonto's just got to hit with his right foot. I don't know why he's moved it onto his left foot.

    The goal was gaping. Just smack it low into the far corner and the keeper's got no chance. It was great play to set him up.

    This is a really open game, by the way. Only 20 minutes gone and it's like a basketball game.

    Leeds 0-1 Leicester

    Leeds have let a few chances go begging now.

    Italian winger Wilfried Gnonto is the latest to see an effort blocked, but it's a really good chance.

    Instead of shooting first time with just the keeper to beat, he tries to cut inside and loses the ball.

    Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall goes to ground in the box after Ethan Ampadu goes in for a challenge.

    It seems Ampadu did well to keep his distance, and the appeals are not exactly that vocal from the Foxes.

  4. 'Not even a foul'published at 20:22 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February

    That was a great tackle by Perreira. If that's a yellow card, the game's gone.

    It's a sliding tackle. He's got a bit of Rutter but I don't think it's even a foul. It's very debatable.

    Coventry 0-2 Preston

    It's turning into a really bad first half for Coventry.

    Already two down to goals by Emil Riis and Will Keane, they've now had influential winger Tatsuhiro Sakamoto taken off on a stretcher after landing awkwardly.

    Kasey Palmer is on in his place as the Sky Blues attempt to find a way back into the game.

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:22 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February

    Leeds 0-1 Leicester

    It's fast, frantic and full-blooded right now.

    Ricardo Pereira is the first to go into referee Craig Powson's book as he is shown a yellow card for a sliding tackle on Georginio Rutter.

    This game is ticking along at a relentless pace.

    Leeds want an immediate reply and Joel Piroe sends a header off target just two minutes after Leicester took the lead.

    You have to give it to the away side, they've had the better of it and it's hard to argue they're not value for their early goal.

    Stephy Mavididi has had two runs at young Archie Gray, one led to the decent chance for Ricardo Pereira and the other to the corner which led to the Wout Faes goal.

    Leeds have not lost here since last May remember and the home support are starting to get a bit agitated with some of the misplaced passes.

  9. 'Exactly what Leicester needed'published at 20:18 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February

    It was a fantastic ball in by Dewsbury-Hall, straight off the training pitch, which was flicked on to the back post and there was Faes to pop it in.

    That was exactly what Leicester needed to do to quieten this crowd down. They need to be calm when they have possession, relax and not force it.

    Wout Faes (16 mins)

    Deadlock broken!

    An in-swinging corner is met by Patson Daka at the front post as the Zambian throws himself at it.

    It is a masterful piece of quick thinking from Daka, as he flicks his header on and Wout Faes is there to nod the ball home at the back post.

    Illan Meslier is forced to make yet another save.

    This time Patson Daka calls the Frenchman into a diving effort after meeting a cut-back pass from Stephy Mavididi on the edge of the area.

    Leicester now have a corner. What can they do with this?

    For a flicker of a moment it seemed as if Leicester winger Stephy Mavididi would race away down the left.

    It takes a wonderfully times sliding tackle from Archie Gray to defuse the danger.

    Leicester City have been in excellent form on the road this season and Elland Road is a place they have enjoyed a good slab of joy in recent years.

    They have only lost one of their last nine away league visits to Leeds - winning five and drawing three.

    Their only defeat in that time was a 1-0 loss in November 2012.

    They will have to work hard to add to their joy at Elland Road at this rate.

    They have just carved out their first shot on target, with Ricardo Pereira sending a tame header from a good position into the arms of Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier.

    The chances and half chances have come in an early torrent at Elland Road.

    Ilia Gruev's foul on Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has Leicester standing over a free-kick just at the top of the box.

    The ball is lifted into the penalty area, and eventually a chance to shoot falls for Abdul Fatawu who fails to really threaten.

    Will Keane (19 mins)

    Coventry haven't been beaten at home since October, but that record's in serious danger now.

    The Sky Blues haven't yet got going and Preston have just taken advantage of sloppiness at the back to double their lead.

    Emil Riis cuts inside and has a shot charged down, but Jay Dasilva then hesitates and gives the loose ball away to the Danish striker, who sets up Will Keane to make it 2-0.

    Oooft, that was a real chance for the home side.

    Leeds cut the Foxes to ribbons down their right and Joel Piroe will wish he could have that one back.

    The Dutchman probably should have passed it on one more to Crysencio Summerville who was in loads of space and did NOT take well to not getting the pass.

    There's a really open feel to the game, with both teams looking dangerous in possession.

  17. 'Piroe needed to play pass'published at 20:08 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February

    Two great disguised passes by Leeds. Piroe just needed to do the same to find Summerville, who was as free as a bird.

    If he had played that five-yard pass, it would have been an open goal.

    Gruev has been really solid for Leeds but he's sent in a couple of late challenges. Leicester move the ball so quickly. Sometimes you just need to stand up to them.

    And less than a minute after that Leicester chance, Joel Piroe blazes wastefully over at the other end for Leeds.

    Wilfried Gnonto teed him up with a delightful flick pass, but the Dutchman makes a mess of the opportunity as it goes high and wide.

    Leicester's Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall takes a pass from Harry Winks and turns into a little bit of space.

    He is a long way out but goes for goal, and drags his low effort off target.

    Leicester deal with the early set-piece, but the hosts have not been shy about piling on the very early pressure.
