Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

62. Soumare plays a shocking pass, gifting it to Eriksen in the final third.

To his credit, he bust a gut to get back and make the vital block to sends the Dane’s effort wide of the goal.

From the resulting corner, Garnacho shoots from the edge of the box but Hermansen gets down well to save in the corner.

60. Well, if you ever needed to feel like the planets are aligning for you to get a massive win, that should be it.

It looked like the game had been put to bed, with the Man Utd winger even sitting on the advertising boards celebrating.

Such a late raising of the flag shocked everyone but the review agreed and has really given The Foxes a lifeline in this game.

Now it is all about capitalising on the gift.

Goal disallowed – Offside

Leicester 0-2 Man Utd

58. The lines are currently being drawn to see if he was offside.

As the replay shows it was a very tight decision.

More added time being totted up for the end of this game.

VAR review in progress

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

56. Eriksen is full of confidence this evening.

He tries another shot from outside the box, this time going low towards the bottom corner of the goal.

Sadly for the Red Devils, he dooes not catch it well and Hermansen saves.

54. Vardy feeds out to Justin, who heads to the byline.

He looks to cross it back into the box but the presence of Dalot sees him knock it out for a goal kick.

That seems like nothing but is just another factor why The Foxes are in the predicament they are.

Fine margins separate teams at this level.

52. It will be interesting to see how the Red Devils shape up now.

Collyer is by no means a central defender so somebody is going to have to fill in and play out of position.

Vardy, with all his experience, should target whoever it is and look to play off their shoulder.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

50. Man Utd are being forced into an early change here.

Collyer looks set to come oon with Heaven still receiving treatment behind the goal.

This could provide a chance to The Foxes as the visitors have to reshuffle the pack due to the player not being able to continue.

46. These are the moments where players are asked to show what they have got to offer their team.

Despite being behind, you know that if The Foxes get the next goal doubt will immediately cloud the minds of these Man Utd players.

They are very much in this game but need to show just how much they want to play at the highest level.

HT: Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

It is creeping towards ten hours since The Foxes scored a goal in front of their own fans at the King Power.

History will tell you that newly promoted sides who stay up in their first season in the top-flight tend to turn their home ground into a fortress that nobody relishes visiting.

Leicester City are so far away from that, it seems nearly impossible to see where the points would come from to ensure their survival.

Van Nistelrooy should be telling their players that they have one crack at this season and to go out their and show the hunger of a team who are not willing to end this journey at the first hurdle.

View from SunSport’s Graeme Bryce at the King Power

United’s mini revival continues and Ruben Amorim’s men look well on course to stretch their unbeaten run to seven games.

Meanwhile the poor Foxes are 45 minutes away from setting an unwanted record as the first team in top flight history to lose SEVEN successive home games without scoring.

Rasmus Hojlund will be relieved to have broken his 21-game duck after 22 hours and 18 minutes.

In truth he should be looking to leave the King Power with the matchball as there are more goals to be taken from this feeble Foxes defence.

HT: Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

IIt has been a half a good intentions but little output from both sides.

However, under-fire striker Rasmus Hojlund finally got back to scoring way with a good finish after Bruno Fernandes set him clear.

With a slender lead this game is far from over but the hosts are not troubling the Man Utd goal enough to turn this game on its head currently.

45. While that was some good work from the Man Utd youngster to protect his goal, Daka will know that was a huge chance wasted.

That is something Leicester can ill-afford given their situation.

You do wonder if that had dropped to Vardy, whether Onana would be fishing that ball out of the back of the net.

We are going to have one added minute.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

43. The visitors goal seems to have silenced The Foxes’ fans.

Meanwhile in the away end the Man Utd fans continue to sing.

Leicester almost offer the perfect response as they look to work Onana but Heaven does well to make an important block.

41. It has been a baptism of fire for Amorim as United manager.

Having to face up to the media post-match and field a host of awkward questions.

He must feel he is due some wins from his side to just make those parts of his job a little more enjoyable.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

39. Kristiansen swings in a teasing ball from out wide to the back post.

It looks as though it is going to fall to Ndidi to slot home with no one around him.

Ugarte does brilliantly to make up the ground, seemingly coming from nowhere to beat the Leicester man to it, turning it behind for a corner instead.

37. With the majority of this first-half having passed, the hosts have only managed a single shot on target.

That is one of their biggest problems in trying to avoid the drop.

No side promoted from the Championship are going to be able to keep out the attacking talent on offer in the top-flight which makes being able to score goals that much more important.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

35. This is the problem all of the mangers of the teams currently in the bottom three have.

When you are losing every week, conceding the first goal can almost create an air of acceptance that it is happening again.

Leicester have not been scoring goals regularly enough this campaign which makes it hard to see them coming back after falling behind.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

33. You felt the first goal in this was important to both teams.

It has proved that way as Leicester heads seem to have dropped somewhat as they fall behind once again.

The Red Devils on the other hand are now controlling play, keeping possession and making The Foxes chase shadows.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

31. That could be just what Hojlund need right now.

So many footballers are reliant on confidence in their own game to put in their best performances.

He has no doubt been in a dark place of late, it will be interesting to see if that changes following that goal.

Leicester 0-1 Man Utd

29. Yes, you are reading that right, Hojlund has scored a goal.

Fernandes plays it through into space and Faes plays the youngster on as he runs through.

His first touch takes him a little wide, seeming like the chance had gone.

However, he drills the ball across Hermansen into the far corner.
