Chelsea have had the better of these opening stages against Leicester, and they’ve just gone a fine margin away from taking the lead.
The Blues have put a number of set pieces in already, and this one found it’s way to the far post, where Thiago Silva and Antonio Rudiger played a neat one two and floated the ball back across goal.
Cesar Azpilicueta lunged for it, but the slightest touch off Wesley Fofana carried it away from the captain.
Without that touch, the Spaniard heads home from a few yards out, and we’re in the league.
