Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at King Power Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Alexandre Lacazette, as he is very good at scoring at King Power Stadium with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 8' Ainsley Maitland-Niles catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 8.
  • 13' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Wilfred Ndidi.
  • 18' It looks surprising Arsenal FC does not make any changes. Ben Chilwell has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 23' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 28' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Leicester City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 33' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 36' A moment of madness from Ainsley Maitland-Niles on 36 minutes earns him a Red card. Arsenal FC will be frustrated.
  • 41' A quiet spell here at King Power Stadium. Leicester City FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 46' Another change for Arsenal FC made on 46 minute. Alex Iwobi leaves to be changed by Laurent Koscielny.
  • 51' Jamie Vardy has been relatively quiet despite scoring 119 goals in his last 354 appearances.
  • 56' Hamza Choudhury has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.

  • 73' Henrikh Mkhitaryan makes way for Matteo Guendouzi at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Arsenal FC.

  • 79' The whistle greets Alexandre Lacazette as he departs to be replaced by Eddie Nketiah.
  • 84' Leicester City FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 86' Another substitution for Leicester City FC to replace Marc Albrighton by Demarai Gray on 86 minute.
