Huth is holding the line well at the back for The Foxes. He's getting his head on everything and overpowering Guardiola's strike force. De Bruyne sends the ball into the box, but the powerful central defender leaps up and clears the danger again.
HALF TIME
Well, entering the interval with a three goal deficit was certainly not written in the script for Guardiola. The Foxes took advantage of an unsettled and unorganised City defence and managed to bury two goals past them in under five-minutes. Vardy has ended his drout and got himself on the scoresheet twice, along with King who finished his strike in style.
However, Guardiola's men appeared to take control towards the end of the first half so I would say that they are far from out of it.
We are off!
Ranieri's men kick off to begin the second half.
48 MINS
A long throw from Fuchs targets Huth, but he is sandwiched between Chelsea shirts. Leicester had a lot of bodies in the box there, so should have done better.
51 MINS
City deliver a ball over the top and Iheanacho chases it and regains possesion. The speed of the youngster should an element that Guardiola's men are using to exploit the Leicester defence. They cannot keep up with him.
It's a good start to the second half for the visitors. But, have they got what it takes to get a point, or even three from this fixture? We'll see.
72 MINS
Toure and Sterling link up well down the left hand flank, but once again the ball into the box is poor. It's the lack of final product and the lack of a centre forward now, that makes City look hopeless going forward.
Did Guardiola make the right decision taking off Iheanacho? I personally can't see the sense in that.
City have had 0 shots on target today.
75 MINS
Yet another wasted City attack leaves Guardiola shaking his head on the sideline. Leicester are showing very little going forward this half, but as long as they continue this fine defensive display - they will be walking away with the three points.
78 MINS
Leicester City 4 - 0 Manchester City
GOAL
A defensive lapse from Stones left a back-pass fall into the path of Vardy, who collected possession and cleverly slotted the ball past Bravo. There was initial dispute around whether it actually crossed the line, but with today's technology - there's no doubt, it's a goal.
That's his hat-trick.
82 MINS
Leicester City 4 - 1 Manchester City
GOAL
Silva drives a City attack forward, with Fuchs sliding in to give away a free kick in a dangerous area.
Kolarov stands over the set piece and slots the ball straight in past Kolarov. He's technically brilliant from that area. However, you cannot help but feel that that is merely a consolation goal.
