73 min Saint-Maximin wins a throw in ridiculous fashion after keeping possession by hooking his leg around the corner flag and somehow keeping the ball in. A shame such dexterity comes to nothing.

Murphy and Willock on for Wood and Almiron.

Photograph: Lee Smith/Action Images/Reuters57 min The follow-up corner is headed away by Joelinton. Then the big man pops up at the other end and tries his luck but, as has been the pattern in the last 10 minutes, the shot is over the bar. 56 min Lookman turns sharply in the Newcastle box and goes to pull the trigger with the goal at his mercy but Targett gets a vital toe to the ball to block him.

67 min That’s quite the stat: Leicester have had 84% possession in the second half. They’ve also had 11 touches in the Newcastle box. The hosts have had precisely none down the other end. 65 min Leicester replace Lookman with Barnes, a man with seven goal involvements in his last 12 Premier League games. 64 min Quick, mesmerizing feet from Saint-Maximin and this time he attempts a pass when he might have been better off shooting. Huh, he just can’t get it right.
90 min Newcastle bring on Gayle for Saint-Maximin. Not his best day. There will be four minutes of added time. 88 min Both sides can’t keep the ball for more than about three passes now. A particularly poor spell of play ends with Krafth taking a whack as he clears. The Swede gets to his feet after a thumbs-up and play continues. 87 min Alan Smith is asked to give his man-of-the-match award but it stumps the ex-Leicester and Arsenal man.
62 min Lookman keeps the ball in by the left corner flag before Dewsbury-Hall’s cross is cleared. Newcastle break and Saint-Maximin adds to his ‘poor effort on goal’ count with a dribbled effort that Schmeichel collects. There were better options there but the Frenchman seems determined to make a heroic contribution before the afternoon is out. 60 min Maddison is being prepped by Rodgers. Substitute time. On comes the creative midfielder for Perez, who is applauded off by his former fans. By contrast, a chorus of boos greet Maddison. 58 min Between all that Joelinton activity, there was a brief VAR check after Perez’s cross from the right was gobbled up by Dubravka.

And in one blow, Alan Smith’s man-of-the-match dilemma is solved as Guimaraes bags his second of the game. That’s surely the Magpies safe now. It’s harsh on Leicester but credit to Newcastle for coming up with something in a game that had looked to be going nowhere for the last 20 minutes.
“How long have I got? ” he asks. It’s a fair question. No-one has really stood out. 85 min Barnes skips down the left and finds Dewsbury-Hall in the area. His cross is blocked just as Iheanacho tries one of those between the legs flicks. Good defending by Newcastle and they do look a much more solid outfit at the back these days. Harvey Barnes in action. Photograph: George Wood/Getty Images84 min I may have incorrectly awarded a yellow card to Targett earlier. I can definitely confirm that Krafth has just been shown one though. 82 min Eight minutes left and this is fading towards a bog-standard 1-1 draw.
