VARDY'S VIEWS
Despite the goal eventually being given as an own goal, Jamie Vardy got right to the point on the equaliser.
Yeah it is all about patience. You can't obviously score with every single touch, it's all about being patient.

PORTUGUESE POWER
Let me give Bruno a bit more praise.
The Manchester United midfielder has now scored 10 premier league goals, the first Portuguese to do that since Cristiano Ronaldo.

MAN OF THE MATCH
Bruno Fernandes' assist and goal earned him man of the match today. Something that journalist Fabrizio Romano agreed with.

FT: LEICESTER 2-2 MAN UTD

LEICESTER 2-2 MAN UTD
90+2. PEREZ WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
The freekick was cleared by the head of Pogba but only to the feet of Tielemans.
The French international then put in a shot/cross which some how found it's way to Perez at the back post but the Spaniard couldn't keep his cool and his effort went wide.

LEICESTER 2-2 MAN UTD
90+1. Freekick for Leicester in a dangerous area.
Every outfield player for Man Utd is in the box defending this set piece.

LEICESTER 2-2 MAN UTD
90. With four minutes added time to go, the ending to this game has been fantastic.
Will someone steal all three points?

VARDY'S HAVIN' A PARTY
Leicester's main man on the score sheet yet again.
De Ja Vu.
- Nyle Smith
Ayoze Perez fired in a low cross and when you want the ball to fall to anyone, you'd want it to fall to Jamie Vardy.
In all honesty, his shot was not the best but deflections off his left foot, right foot and Tuanzebe trickled the ball into the United net.
That's 14 for the season for Vardy.

FANTASTIC FERNANDES
Superb finish from Bruno.
- Nyle Smith
Just as I mentioned lucky number 7, it came to reality.
Cavani didn't score but it was his assist who put Bruno Fernandes through for a chance he simply couldn't miss.

GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLL!
FERNANDESSSSSS!
AND IT'S NOT A PENALTY!

75. Could it be the lucky number 7 for United?
Ole sends on Edinson Cavani for Martial with his last change of the day.

LINDE-OFF
Victor Lindelof knew his time was up as soon as he hit the ground.
- Nyle Smith
LEICESTER 1-1 MAN UTD
71. Both teams going blow for blow on Boxing Day.
Albrighton this time with a nice cross after cutting inside on his favourite left foot but the ball was too high for Barnes or Vardy to get any kind of contact on it.
- Nyle Smith
LEICESTER 1-1 MAN UTD
69. Maguire leaps above everyone and gets his head onto the floating cross but the ball ends up in row z.
I don't think it would of counted if that went in because the replays showed the England international with his hands all over Fofana.
- Nyle Smith
LEICESTER 1-1 MAN UTD
68. Good chance for United to send the defenders up as Luke Shaw stands over the freekick.
This could be dangerous.
- Nyle Smith
LEICESTER 1-1 MAN UTD
64. Lindelof hobbles off for Tuanezebe in Ole's second change of the day.
It seems as if that same injury the defender has been dealing with all season, has flared up again.
- Nyle Smith
ACCESS DENIED
Good finish from Martial but it was ruled out for offside.
- Nyle Smith
LEICESTER 1-1 MAN UTD
62. False alarm people, Martial was found offside and in all honesty, we know he is quick but he seemed to have too much time to run in on goal.
Give credit when credit is due to VAR.

VAR DOESN'T REST!
NOT EVEN ON BOXING DAY!
