Ipswich Town vs Leicester City
It is more late drama for Leicester, who once again scores a stoppage time goal to earn another result. This time, it is just a point for the Foxes against an Ipswich side who for the fifth time, surrenders a lead. Davis' fantastic strike is canceled out by Ayew's well-taken finish. The game certainly changed after Phillips was shown his second yellow card with about 12 minutes to play. Nevertheless, it will be the hosts who will fee hard done by the fact they once again fail to pick up three points. The final xG reads 1.77-0.99 in Leicester's favour. Thank you for tuning into this live text commentary for the game between Ipswich and Leicester, which, for the third consecutive head-to-head, ends 1-1. Take care, and until next time.

Buonanotte fouls O'Shea in the box, allowing for Ipswich to clear their lines. It was another goal-mouth scramble, but Ipswich can be happy for the free-kick.

Fatawu tries to pick out Vardy, but his cross is too high, with the ball going out for a goal-kick.

Really good play from Vardy to have the presence of mind to do the one-two with Ayew. The striker's pass is just perfect, allowing Ayew to put it in the back of the net.

Buonanotte slips a man and puts a powerful shot on target, which is met by Muric. Fatawu also goes for goal but has his attempt blocked.

What a save by Burgess. Ayew, who just came on, is played in by Buonanotte, and while he beats Muric, Burgess comes back and denies the Ghanaian the equalizer.
