That's it! Leicester City have won a thoroughly entertaining game. Tottenham might feel aggrieved after having a goal disallowed for the narrowest of margins via VAR, yet Leicester were fantastic in the second half and turned their fortunes around superbly. Maddison was excellent in midfield and Soyuncu has slotted comfortably into the Maguire-shaped hole in their defence. They really do look like a team that are going places this season.
90+6
More brilliant work from Soyuncu, who robs Eriksen on the edge of the area and runs the ball thirty yards to safety. Spurs are forced to pass back to Gazzaniga, to huge roars from the Leicester fans.
90+5
Spurs are probing, and almost release Aurier into the area but Leicester scramble across and clear. Leicester have no out ball here, as Maddison is hobbling alone in the centre-circle.
90+3
Maddison is a passenger here, so it's effectively 10 versus 11. Can Spurs make this count?
90+2
Spurs are pressing down the left, but Praet breaks the play up and Gray carries the ball clear for Leicester.
90+1
We're into six minutes of added time.
90'
Eriksen pumps a free-kick into the box, but the excellent Soyuncu rises high to clear the ball.
88'
Trouble here for Maddison, and for Leicester; it looks like he's gone over on his ankle, and they've used all their substitutions. He's struggling badly.

GOAL! Leicester City 2 (Maddison 85) Tottenham 1
What a goal by James Maddison! He's been the best player on the pitch and he might have won this for Leicester. A long ball by Chilwell is cleared by Spurs to Choudhury, who finds Maddison in space twenty five yards out and central. He opens up to shoot with his right, and thunders a low, dipping shot past Gazzaniga into the bottom corner!

Kane gets a glimmer of an opening, but smashes his shot straight at Schmeichel who parries away. Gray is then booked for a nasty looking challenge on Rose.

A looping cross from Rose clears everyone again, and reaches Aurier at the back post. He smashes another cross-cum-shot at goal, but it's well wide. For Leicester, Gray replaces Barnes.

Eriksen is on for Lamela.
78'
Son suddenly gets free on the right of the box. From a tight angle he smashes the ball across goal, Schmeichel gets a palm on it and Leicester hoof it clear.
78'
Rose provides a bit of respite for Tottenham with a run down the left, but puts to much on his cross and it clears everyone.
75'
Eriksen is warming up for Tottenham, who need a momentum shift here. Ten minutes ago it looked like they'd won it, right now they look nailed on to ship another.
73'
Leicester are looking far the more likely to win this right now. Vardy struggles to get a through ball out of his feet on the right of the area, before smashing an angled drive over the bar.
72'
Kane chases a long ball down the left, where Jonny Evans flies in to take man and ball and dump Kane over the touchline. The Leicester fans loved that.

Pereira is having quite a game here. He goes on a gallop through the middle, where Wanyama hauls him down and is booked.
