Half-Time Report: Leicester City, Tottenham Hotspur remain goalless

Leicester City hold firm against Tottenham Hotspur as they remain goalless at half time.

Tottenham Hotspur have failed to turn their pressure into goals as they remain level with Leicester City at the break.

Spurs had the first shot of the day as Moussa Dembele unleashed an effort from long range, but it was straight at Leicester keeper Kasper Schmeichel.

Marc Albrighton went close to giving Leicester the lead minutes later, as he curled a shot marginally over the bar after cutting inside onto his right foot.

Eric Dier also went close for Spurs with a header, before Schemichel dived low to save another Dembele shot.

Spurs controlled possession for much of the half but Leicester remained defensively solid, with Robert Huth and Wes Morgan keeping Harry Kane quiet.
