0' In just a few seconds London Stadium will turn into a battlefield for West Ham United FC and Leicester City FC.
5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

21' What a strike from Tomas Soucek! The score is 1-0.
26' It looks surprising Leicester City FC does not make any changes. Andy Irving has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

36' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
41' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering West Ham United FC that had 341 games and scored 462 goals.
43' Goal! Jannik Vestergaard scores his 8 goal in 348 matches.
48' West Ham United FC is showing some good football. However, West Ham United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

78' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
83' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
