63'
Lanzini replaces Noble. Sadly, YouTube is silent on the famous Italian restaurant frequented by the residents of Ramsay Street.
62'
Gosh, that was close! Moses crosses from the right and Reid rotates, contorts his body into a brilliant flick - but Morgan is there doing likewise, and it's enough. The ball feathers the outsidce of the post, and goes behind.
61'
Who'd have expected this?
59'
Ranieri's regular change, but earlier than usual: Ulloa is on for Okazaki.
57'
JAMIE VARDY IS SENT-OFF! He shows a fantastic turn of pace to absolutely burn up Ogbonna on the outside but then tangles their legs up together - probably deliberately, but it's hard to be certain, even after a replay. Jon Moss races over, the crowd cheer anticipating a penalty, and instead a second yellow card arrives; played the drama beautifully there. Hold tight!
55'
Another Leicester break, and Okazaki drags a shot-cum-cross-cum-shot across goal from left to right, and Vardy can't quite get to it.
54'
Albrighton departs, Schlupp arrives.
53'
But here come Leicester, forcing a corner, and Fuchs well forwards, darts one into Okazaki, who gives it back. This time, he unfurls a cross towards Huth, who reaches it - but can't get over it, bumping over the top.
51'
West Ham are building here, Morgan reacting faster than Carroll to Payet's cross into the box. It's been a while since Leicester mustered any meaningful possession.
51'
49'
West Ham win a corner down the right and after the inevitable kerfuffle, both Huth and Morgan are called over by the ref for natter. And the kick is a goodun when it arrives, Carroll alowing the rolling maul to race past him before flinging himself low to pile a header past the near post.
47'
Huth - who was probably lucky not to concede a penalty defending the free-kick that brought about the Leicester goal - bumps into Emenike in centrefield. He looks as nonplussed as you would, spending some time gathering himself before the gaame can continue.
46'
Leicester kick-off.
14:31
West Ham make a change for the second half: Andy Carroll replaces Pedro Obiang.

14:20
Though light on chances, that was a very presentable half of association football. West Ham have competed not just well but hard, and Leicester did well to escape going behind before conjuring one of the best goals you'll see. The second half should be a bazzer.
45+1'
Half-time: Leicester City 1-0 West Ham United
45'
There shall be one added minute.
45'
West Ham win a corner down the left - can Payet drive a flat one across the six-yard box, to take advantage of Schmeichel's most obvious weakness? No he can't - the ball is closer to penalty spot, and Huth geronimos away.
43'
There are lots of aspects to this remarkable shebang that are remarkable, but the one that I'm currently finding remarkablest is the confidence and conviction with which Leicester have played once it got real. That's not the same as playing well - no team can do that in every game - but there's been not the slightest hint of nerves. Manchester United, Blackburn and Newcastle can all testify to how unusual that is in a team which has never won the title before.
Drinkwater cleverly turns it a loose ball down the line, haring in pursuit - until Noble, who he beat to it, slides in and brings him down. Amazingly, even though he is immediately hauled to his feet by the perpetrator, the ref is undeterred from presenting the yellow card.
